Build-time tests are run, well, at build-time. Nothing prevents you from
build-depending on every pythonX.Y you wish and doing every test that
might please you, regardless of whether you are using python-central.
Also, python-central was not complicated. For version 0.3 (0.4 was
released later but I didn't install it):
% wc -l /usr/sbin/register-python-package
182 /usr/sbin/register-python-package
It is a simple shell script.
