Comment(by jhpalmieri):
Regarding the files sage-env, sage-make_relative, and sage-spkg: these are
currently in the scripts repo (and it makes a lot of sense for them to be
there), but they get used in the Sage build process right from the start.
(There have been complaints about the role of sage-make_relative, and
those might have some validity to them, but this is not the ticket to deal
with that.) Right now, the script sage-sdist copies them from the scripts
repo to the base directory so they're in the right place in a new source
distribution. One of the first things that spkg/install does is to copy
them back to local/bin/ so they're in the right place to be executed.
So: what should be done with these? Move them to root repo and put links
to them in local/bin? That seems to make a lot of sense, but it doesn't
feel right for some reason. Any other ideas?
