[python-uk] Suggestions / best practices for deployment

[E Hartley]

One point that's worth mentioning in this context:
If you rely on building native libraries for custom Python packages of your own or those created by third parties consider avoiding the automatic systems that do security updates in the background.
We had a sysadmin at point who insisted on this and had a series of package breakages as the library dependencies broke.
