== First the directory structure ==
{{{
  src/ -- *vanilla* upstream
  SPKG.txt -- describes the spkg in wiki format, each new revision
needs an updated changelog entry or an automatic "needs work" from my
end at review time
  spkg-install -- the install script
  spkg-check -- runs the test suite - this is somewhat optional since
not all spkgs have test suites
  patches -- for patches against upstream. Each file
foo.extension needs to have a diff against the original file, i.e.
foo.extension.patch for easy rebases against new upstream
}}}


There are usually a number of things to do for all spkgs:

 * ensure that "make install" is non-parallel, i.e. do a "export MAKE=make"
 * SAGE_LOCAL check (#633)
 * add spkg-check (#299)
 * add proper SPKG.txt to all packages
 * /usr/bin/env bash (#1638)
 * add md5sums for spkgs (#329)
 * set LDFLAGS on OSX (#3349)
