Hi Debian (2015.09.10_10:09:04_-0700)
> * Build-depend on python-setuptools. Without this dependency, the scripts

Figured it out:
pybuild clean removes setuptools.egg_info, which contains entry_points.txt.
setuptools uses the entry_points to find which commands to run, and
without it, it won't run "install_scripts".
If python-setuptools is installed, entry_points.txt is available, in
dist-packages, and it works.
I think a cleaner (and less loopy) solution is:
