This ticket is about updating the developer guide for #10492.
The developer guide suggests
(http://sagemath.org/doc/developer/producing_spkgs.html#the-file-spkg-txt)
{{{
If your package depends on another package, say boehmgc, then you
should check that this other package has been installed. Your spkg-install
script should check that it exists, with code like the following:
BOEHM_GC=`cd $SAGE_ROOT/spkg/standard/; ./newest_version boehm_gc`
if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then
echo "Failed to find boehm_gc. Please install the boehm_gc
spkg"
exit 1
fi
}}}
This is totally wrong. It only checks that a spkg ''exists'', not that it
has been installed.
