Using Ubuntu, downloaded sage6.7 binary and successfully installed. Use terminal to run sage. To install a package, the recipe used to be sage -optional, then sage -i package. Now all changed. How should I install, say, the package database-gap? I have installed the Ubuntu package git, then get lost. Linux command line solution would be great.

sage -i database_gap should work.

In particular, Sage has its own copy of git so you shouldn't have to install anything for this sort of operation. However, if you downloaded a binary it's possible you will need some developer tools like gcc and make that are not pre-included.
