Hi,
Many Python module developers do not want their work to be distributed by Debian (and probably by other Linux distributions), here's a list of hints that will help you accomplish that goal:
Great hints, I'll try to follow them... and they could make a good section in the Hitchhiker's guide to packaging ;)

You should be permissive on that one. Until we know how to describe resource files properly, file is what developer use when they need their projects to be portable..
Notice that we have started to work on fixing this - http://hg.python.org/distutils2/file/tip/docs/design/wiki.rst
