Not really, this is a very tiny thing, only a .py I want to place
correctly, I think the most relevant part is debian/rules and setup.py.

Note that I want to compile this Ubuntu Lucid, I tried with
"DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM=pysupport" and "DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM=pycentral"[1]

Here is my debian/rules:

#v+
#!/usr/bin/make -f

# Uncomment this to turn on verbose mode.
#export DH_VERBOSE=1

include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk

#DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM=pycentral
DEB_PYTHON_SYSTEM=pysupport
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/python-distutils.mk

# Add here any variable or target overrides you need.
#v-


Here is my setup:

#v+
#!/usr/bin/env python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

Someone debian-python give me the advise to use dh_python2, which is not
available on Lucid, or use "DH_PYCENTRAL=include-links dh_pycentral"

I tryed to add it to "binary-install-python/<package>::" without success.

It was working on hardy (and sarge), upstream application[2] add call to
dh_pycentral[3] because he was not able to use plugins config cache with
twisted using python-support.

I hope I did not miss some pythoneries and provide enough informations.

Regards.

Footnotes: 
[1]  Note that with pycentral it does not work if I set
     DH_PYCENTRAL=include-links
