Sagemath not included in Ubuntu 24.04 Noble Numbat?
Steps To Reproduce
The sagemath package is not included in the latest version of Ubuntu, although several of the sagemath-database packages are included (see this link]. According to this bug report, Sagemath fails to build with Python 3.12. However, I was able to install Sagemath from source (with having to install a few extra packages not mentioned in the build instructions) and it works fine. I guess I'm just making this issue to notify the Sagemath developers of this issue in case they don't already know of it, and/or to ask how we can get Sagemath into the Ubuntu 24.04 repository.
Expected Behavior
I expected to be able to install Sagemath via the Ubuntu package manager, as it has been in their repositories for about two years.
Actual Behavior
The Sagemath package is not in the Ubuntu 24.04 repository. However, other packages such as sagemath-database-conway-polynomials and sagemath-database-graphs are still in the Ubuntu 24.04 repository.

I agree that it's a SageMath bug, but not in the sense that SageMath forgot to do Debian/Ubuntu packaging.
It's rather has made it very hard to do this.

Hi @SergeyHein unfortunately I don't have any build scripts you can reuse. I just followed the build-from-source instructions on the Sagemath website (my have been on the Sagemath GitHub page), checked the given error each time something failed, and installed a few additional packages that were complained about.
