New description:
The `$SAGE_ROOT/spkg/install` has a here document that creates
`pipestatus`. With the sage root repository, this is no longer needed as
`pipestatus` is tracked by the repository. The patch removes it from
`$SAGE_ROOT/spkg/install`.
----
Apply [attachment:trac_10970_do_not_generate_pipestatus.patch] to the Sage
'''root repository''' (in `$SAGE_ROOT`).

Comment(by leif):
I still think removing `pipestatus` for no reason at this point is simply
superfluous.
The patch should IMHO ''at least'' test for `pipestatus`'s presence, and
issue ''an appropriate'' error message (with instructions how to fix this)
if it doesn't exist; though quite late in the upgrade process, i.e.
''after'' all updated packages have been downloaded, of course.
P.S.: We could even attempt to download it (with e.g. `curl` or `wget`)
from the script. Or install the root repository "manually" in advance on
upgrading, of course from the updated `spkg/install`, since the other
scripts are those of the old version.
