I have now released sage-2.7.1. it should now be the case that all spkg's in that release contain .hg directories, are the format that you and Didier designed, and they are the most up-to-date versions. Two packages can be safely merged by extracting one and pull from the other; the src directory might also have to updated if the version number changes. Note that we now have the latest scipy, and not-so-recent numpy, in SAGE proper. Also, SAGE-2.7.1 by default includes a Fortran compiler (g95), and some modifications to numpy's distutils/gnu.py to support our compiler setup. Just to emphasize -- I'm very keen on having very strong support for numerical computation in the SAGE, rather than having two separate version based on SAGE. I also definitely want to switch to a framework build of Python soon, so we can have good OS X native gui support for matplotlib -- thanks for the great work you already put into this.
