There were also a bdist_deb project but it never made it to distutils, also for Debian there's a policy on how to work with python packages :

Last, this mailing list had a lot of threads about the fact that there's no standard way in Python to work with resources that could be installed in the system, using a LSB-compliant approach.

So I don't have (I think no one does at this point) any clear view of what could be done in this area.

I don't understand what are the potential problems, but so far I've been happy using stdeb to produce .deb's from my Python sdists.
