how do I install an spkg?
I want to install this spkg:

After opening the spkg with tar I don't see any installation instructions.

Do this:
sage -i http://www.sagemath.org/packages/experimental/cadabra-0.115.spkg
Or if you haven't downloaded it yet, just type "sage -i cadabra" and it should look up the version number and download the file.
I tryed, but: make: * No rule to make target 'all-toolchain'. Stop. how to solve?
What version of Sage are you using? Did you download a binary version or source?
There's also "sage -f" (the "f" stands for "force"), which works just like "sage -i" but will install the spkg even if the same (or a later) version is already installed.
This is very useful when you're working on a spkg and making little changes, or if someone gives you a modified spkg with the same version.
And there is `sage -f -m` which installs the spkg and does *not* delete the build directory from `spkg/build`, which can be useful for debugging.
