The licensing issue also makes installing more cumbersome, since you are 
supposed to open a browser and click around. 

This could possibly be improved by 
displaying the licensing information given and linked and the page 
scip.zib.de/download.php?fname=scipoptsuite-5.0.1.tgz directly in the 
terminal during installation process and letting the user input name, 
country and email right there (perhaps with meaningful defaults). 
Then a curl request like the following could be used 
`curl   -d tname='Your Name' -d email=your@email.address -d country='Mars' 
-d license=academic -d fname=scipoptsuite-5.0.1.tgz -L 
scip.zib.de/download.php  -o 
path/to/your/sage/upstream/scipoptsuite-5.0.1.tgz`
where the entries for tname, email and country have to be replaced with the 
user's input. 

We definitely don't simply want to use a command like 

`wget http://scip.zib.de/download/release/scipoptsuite-5.0.1.tgz` 

to put the file in the upstream directory, because the user needs to 
acknowledge and agree to the license.
