There is already a command that let you create a rpm package
(bdist_rpm) out of a python package,

There were also a bdist_deb project but it never made it to distutils,
also for Debian there's a policy on how to work with python packages :
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/python-policy/

Last, this mailing list had a lot of threads about the fact that
there's no standard way in Python to work with resources that
could be installed in the system, using a LSB-compliant approach.

So I don't have (I think no one does at this point) any clear view of
what could be done in this area.
