Good point Jonathan. What I should be doing, now I'm almsot a distutils
expert, is install everything into the relative location (so it goes to
{site,dist}-packages/).

Then the Debian packaging scripts can shuffle things around to be the
appropriate places for installation via the package-manager for
Debian/Ubuntu systems utilising python-support.

Give me a couple of days and I'll redo setup.py and the debian scripts
to correct that. I'll let you know when its sorted out.
