Hi François, I have no problem building Sage from scratch with NTL 5.5.2 and gf2x. As I said, I have myself available spkgs (and patches) doing them job (modifiy spkg-install, remove or modify the patches to NTL, update spkg/standard/deps etc). My problem is that the policy is to make new spkg optional during some time before inclusion as standard. I would like to be able to install gf2x with 'sage -i gf2x-0.9.6' and this seems more difficult to me.
