Distutils should be able to produce Debian packages
(.deb), it's the Other[TM] large linux package-format
after all. It might perhaps be done by using "alien" on
an .rpm, but for the simple cases of pure Python
modules and packages it ought to be handled internally.

Please see nondist/sandbox/Lib/bdist_dpkg.py in the Python
CVS tree for a partial implementation.  Help developing this
would be gratefully accepted.
