Thanks for that pointer. I have a couple packages that I need to convert
which were already published in other archives, so this is very handy.
(Sorry for top-posting, android does not allow me any other option).

Be aware that, for an package that was *already* in Debian, you would
need to modify your maintainer scripts to clean up after the mess left
by ‘python-central’ in previous versions of the package. See
<URL:http://lists.debian.org/debian-python/2009/03/msg00060.html> (view
the full thread for a discussion of why it's necessary).

That's not strictly needed for a package that was never in Debian to
date, but it might be a good idea (and at any rate it does no harm) if
your package has ever been installed via other repositories.
