that's because python-django is using --buildsystem=pybuild in dh; if you add

  export PYBUILD_NAME=bootstrapvz

it will install .py / egg-info files into python-bootstrapvz binary package
(please add python-bootstrapvz binary package, BTW)

> Also, its "*.egg-info/" folder also went missing, as we can see with "debdiff":

"usr/lib/python*/dist-packages/bootstrapvz/" in bootstrap-vz.install
doesn't match /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-0.9.5.egg-info,
add this line if you want egg-info to be included:

  /usr/lib/python*/dist-packages/bootstrap_vz-*.egg-info/
