Thanks Matthias! That's quite a complicated example, although I can see there's much I can learn from it. Unfortunately, it's not the ideal example because it moves everything that setup.py builds into /usr/share/openstack-dashboard. I need to keep stuff under /usr/lib/pythonX.Y/site-packages so that the other, non-Django, parts continue to work as expected. (I suppose I could just relocate the Django-parts of the build, but sounds like it will break more things that it will help.)
