The "./configure" part of the installation of sage advice this: database_cremona_ellcurve-20190911: optional, use "./configure --enable-database_cremona_ellcurve" to install
Therefore, if I were you, after updating the source tree with git let's say, I would do: make configure ./configure --enable-database_cremona_ellcurve MAKE='make -j8' make to compile sagemath in parallel such a way that it automatically installs the desired optional packages in whatever ordering respecting the dependencies which works. You may also want more such "enable" as follows: ./configure \ --enable-experimental-packages \ --enable-download-from-upstream-url \ --enable-ccache \ --enable-database_cremona_ellcurve You may consult the config.log file which lists a lot of them.
