You will probably get better answers if you ask this question on a
Debian packaging forum.

        In particular, `distutils` is part of the standard python
distribution and it is in no way specific to Debian, so I don't feel
this is the wrong place to ask,

Technically it's a valid question because it is about a module in the standard library. But it's not really about the language and building Linux packages is well beyond what most newbies get up to - and
in fact I don't know of too many experienced Python users who do
it either!

So I think Steven's advice is probably valid and you will get better advice asking on the Debian/[UKX]buntu/Mint forums or on the main Python list.

I notice there is also a distutils SIG with a mailing list which looks like they might help. A quick look at some mails suggests they cover this kind of issue.

FWIW I used the gmane web site to take a quick look...
