That's probably an unrelated effort to our portage work, except that whatever build system improvements you make for packaging will benefit our work, too. I was thinking of the idea of having sage-specific deb packages for sage's foreign (often patched) modules. So maybe sage-gap, sage-maxima, et cetera, which would install into /opt/sage.
