 The top level of the sagenb spkg does not have an hg repository, which is
 very confusing since all spkg's are supposed to.  It turns out that spkg-
 install is autogenerated and SPKG.txt is in sagenb's own repository, i.e.,
 in {{{sagenb-0.9.0/src/sagenb/SPKG.txt}}}.

 Jason Grout and William Stein discussed this for a while and propose the
 following plan:

  1. Create a directory {{{sagenb-0.9.0/src/sagenb/release/sage}}}
  2. Put spkg-dist, SPKG.txt there, along with a small hg repo that
 contains SPKG.txt and spkg-install.
  3. Use this new spkg-dist script to generate a proper sagenb spkg in the
 usual way.  However, it will copy over the hg repo created in 2, then
 check in spkg-install and SPKG.txt.

 The motivation for this is so that the sagenb spkg is the same as the
 other ones, which could be important for automated tools that make a
 directory of spkg's, etc.
