| sagemath maintainer here. The sagemath 9.2 package is broken at the moment 
and does not build and I wouldn't expect it to work very well either. I am 
working on a big update but that may still need some days until it's finished. 
In the meantime I wouldn't mind if sagemath 9.2 breaks further.

Thanks for maintaining such a large and complex package. It looks like things
are being addressed and Alexandre should be back to complete setup soon too.

Cheers, Dirk
