------------------------+---------------------------------------------------
 When we build new or updated Sage packages (spkgs), `SAGE_LOCAL/bin/sage-
 pkg` runs a few checks for common problems.  For example,

 {{{
 #!sh
 $ sage -pkg foo/
 Creating Sage package foo/
 Warning: no version number detected

 Created package foo.spkg.

     NAME: foo
  VERSION:
     SIZE: 17.8M
  HG REPO: Good
 SPKG.txt: Good

 Please test this package using
 [...]
 }}}

 But we could add several new, more detailed tests for `spkg-install`, etc.
 Or put them in a `sage-spkg-{check,checker,lint}` script.
