Did you not have this with the PPA 6.8? You should have gotten this error
with 6.8 as well. (Note the 6.9 is still in the savemath-dev PPA, not the
stable one.)

Can you send the out put of ls -la /usr/lib/sagemath. I expect src is owned
by root and readable by all. The difference here is that the binary is
unpacked as your user, and all the files are owned by your user. The PPA
unpacks as root (as most software does on multi-user systems). I'm thinking
about adding a sagemath user and changing ownership of $SAGE_ROOT to that
non-root user though. Then you will have to su to sagemath to build. It is
in any case unsafe to run make as root.

On a single-user system you can fix this with

sudo chown -R $USER:$USER /usr/lib/sagemath/src

(or /usr/lib/sagemath) and then running your sm-install.sh as yourself
without sudo.

Also, you need to be usign sagemath-upstream-binary-full (with the full) or
most of your src folder will be missing.

Regards,
Jan
