We really should just remove all those SAGE_xyz variables. 


Why? Do you assume that sage-the-distro is dead?  

  |  doc is built after sage is built. Why not just put SAGE_DOC under '-o'?

It's already falling back to SAGE_DOC if you don't specify '-o'. But that 
doesn't solve the question why/how sagelib should determine where you (or 
your distro) will end up installing the documentation. 


 '"SAGE_ROOT/local/share/doc" has been the default and I don't see why this 
should change. 
 

Say on arch, I'm installing the sagemath-doc package which puts it in 
usr/share/doc/sage. How do you communicate that to sagemath? 


I don't know. Define SAGE_DOC to the non-default location?  Anyway, this is 
not a new problem. 

A new problem is that now the doc is not installed into the default 
location defined by SAGE_DOC.
