Do install files work differently for packages that involve
python_distutils?
When I package C++ stuff, I used install or packagename.install files to
suppress certain files, to add certain files to specific locations or to
split files among packages.
But as soon as I introduce an install file to a python lib package that
I started with py2dsc, I start getting error messages.

The *.install files are read and used by dh_install. I wouldn't expect
the build system to make a difference there. It might be helpful if
you posted the errors you are receiving.

Besides if you use pybuild (https://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide),
you don't need to worry too much about where things get installed, since
pybuild figures a lot of things out for you.

I second Jordan, please provide a dump of your build log and we can see what
went wrong.
