Are there tests to verify this is working correctly? I ask because I'm planning to mention using sagemath on Fedora as an alternative to Wolfram Mathematica to some people on our university, and I wouldn't mind using stock sagemath instead of packaged one for the time being, until packaged one gets wider testing. I'm very grateful for your effort, and having packaged sagemath will definitely make deployment and updates easier in the long term, but leaving a good initial impression is really important when people are exposed to free software.
