Comment(by kini):

 I agree. Certainly `sage-spkg` should not touch the `src/` directory under
 any circumstances, IMO, as the SPKG format should be flexible enough to be
 distributed sans the `src/` directory with the expectation that a
 particular upstream source archive can be extracted into `src/` before
 running `spkg-install` (if we at some point decide to build a more complex
 package manager, etc.).

 I don't think that changes to the other files in the SPKG should be made
 by `sage-spkg` immediately before archiving, either, because this results
 in uncommitted changes in the Mercurial repository shipped inside the
 SPKG, which is not good. Though I guess you may disagree with me on this
 point, Jeroen, as (IIRC) you use scripts which make automated commits in
 SPKGs before publishing them, right?
