How would I do that? dh_auto_install moves the script too debian/gladtex/usr/bin
along with the module (to */usr/lib). I now set the PYBUILD_NAME to the name of the library package
(python3-gleetex) and move the file manually after dh_auto_install. Looks hacky
though.
I've uploaded the package to ssh://git.debian.org/git/python-modules/packages/gladtex.git.

It would be great if somebody could have a look.

Thanks
Sebastian
