Replying to [comment:1 leif]:
> Well, perhaps one should simply suppress (or avoid) the error message in
case no Python is (yet) installed, but the script is really odd.
Or just not check if python is not run.

Yes. At the minute it tests binaries too.
> * It "rewrites" '''every''' file that contains {{{python}}} and
{{{#!}}} in its first line, so even already correct (and already modified)
files starting with

That's not such a big deal.
> * It makes all these files writable (but only for the owner).
> I don't agree moving its functionality into {{{sage-spkg}}} is a good
idea. (IIRC it is called by other scripts as well, and {{{sage-spkg}}}
shouldn't be blown up too much.)
OK, well this is easy to fix by putting an
if [ -f '$SAGE_LOCAL/bin/python" ] ; then
# Run the python script.
fi
I'll leave you to modify the python script if you want to.
