I develop and package webcheck [0] (a python application with private modules). I put all stuff in /usr/share/webcheck and use python-support for compiling the stuff there. I ship an /usr/bin/webcheck symlink to /usr/share/webcheck/webcheck.py.

I have only recently had a look at distutils [1] and have the impression that it is only meant for stuff that should end up in the system python path (please correct me if I'm wrong).
