It took me some time to identify the prerequisites for an upstream tarball to be easily packaged. It is good to insist, thanks for the link.
On a related thought, I see no good page for helping python projects to be friendly toward distributions. I can see the python buildout system getting momentum among developers but no standard way to transform a buildout into a debian package.

There's http://github.com/astraw/stdeb/tree/master . It is a nice tool to automate some of the "manual labor" of generating a Debian package from your Python package. It can't do everything, but it is a start. There's also http://pypi.python.org/pypi/van.pydeb and bdist_deb. I haven't tried them.
