For Debian it's bad because we don't ship the .pyc files in the package they 
are managed locally by the installed python system.  They are also unnecessary 
because setuptools/pip/python is smart enough to relate .pyc files to their .py 
files without them being listed.

Part of the goal here is to make sure that regardless of the installation 
method, there's a list of files that were installed.  Since Debian packages 
don't install the .pyc files, listing them is wrong.

P.S.  I'm subscribed to the list, so there's no need to CC me.
