Comment(by jhpalmieri):
It seems to work on t2.math to use {{{cp -RPp}}}. There are some
warnings, but the resulting tar.gz file seems to unpack okay and producing
a working version of Sage.
{{{
-R
Copy file hierarchies.
-P
Take actions on any symbolic link specified as a source_file operand or
any symbolic link
encountered during traversal of a file hierarchy.
-p
Duplicate the following characteristics of each source file in the
corresponding destination
file: The time of last data modification and time of last access. If
this duplication fails for any
reason, cp shall write a diagnostic message to standard error.
The user ID and group ID. If this duplication fails for any reason, it
is unspecified whether cp
writes a diagnostic message to standard error.
The file permission bits and the S_ISUID and S_ISGID bits. Other,
implementation-defined, bits
may be duplicated as well. If this duplication fails for any reason, cp
shall write a diagnostic
message to standard error.
If the user ID or the group ID cannot be duplicated, the file permission
bits S_ISUID and
S_ISGID shall be cleared. If these bits are present in the source file
but are not duplicated
in the destination file, it is unspecified whether cp writes a
diagnostic message to standard error.
The order in which the preceding characteristics are duplicated is
unspecified. The dest_file
shall not be deleted if these characteristics cannot be preserved.
}}}
