That post summarizes a very long thread of rants between debian people and 
distutils. 

I asked the same question you are asking. Lots of ranting on the debian-python 
mailing list and ultimately no recommendations or answers.

The rant thread is here:

It looks like something positive is starting to happen, you can read about it 
here: http://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2006/01/msg00028.html
