New description:

 When `SAGE_PATH` (and hence also `PYTHONPATH`) contains "`.`" (the current
 working directory) during the installation of `sagenb`, Python is able to
 find `sagenb` in its path and therefore refuses to add it to `easy-
 install.pth`. Later, Sage won't find it, leading to the following error
 message:
 {{{
 ImportError: No module named sagenb.misc.sphinxify
 Error importing ipy_profile_sage - perhaps you should run %upgrade?
 WARNING: Loading of ipy_profile_sage failed.
 }}}

 This is a follow-up to #10176, and there has been some discussion on
 [http://groups.google.com/group/sage-
 release/browse_thread/thread/bb636656e2153332 sage-release].

 ----

 Apply only

  [attachment:trac_10192-remove_dot_from_PYTHONPATH_in_sage-
 spkg.v3.scripts.patch]

 to the Sage '''scripts repository''' (in `$SAGE_ROOT/local/bin/`).

Comment:

 Update patch to sage-4.8.

 This has positive review from my side. If there is nothing else holding it
 up, then it should be merged, in my opinion.
