I've created a small application in a virtualenv and would like to
package it up as a .deb file for distribution on various
Debian/Ubuntu (and derivatives) systems.

Are there any good resources documenting this process?  The biggest
issue involves using versions of modules installed via pip into my
virtualenv that are out of sync (usually newer) with what is available
in the stock repositories.

Thanks,
