Comment(by jhpalmieri):

 Replying to [comment:44 jdemeyer]:
 > Wow, I just realized that the base repo was never actually updated on
 upgrade.  We cannot retro-actively fix the `sage-update` script of
 previous Sage versions to fix this.  So this is going to remain.

 I'm not sure what you mean.  We can modify the `sage-update` script: it
 gets run twice during the upgrade process, so it will be modified the
 second time through, so we might be able to make relevant changes there.
 But upgrading seems complicated to me, and I've made mistakes trying to
 modify the update script before.
