How to add PyPi dependencies to DEB package

问题:

I created some python app using autobahn and packaged it using baazar builddeb. In python setup.py file I added requires tag with all the required dependencies. Is it possible to tell debian package installer to install these packages?

I added some of deps to debian/control>Depends but:

1. dpkg -i my_package does not install dependencies. Just shows the error and I need to install these deps manually.

2. some packages does not exists in standard Ubuntu repos. For example autobahn. And in general I'd like to have installed all python dependencies by pip/easy_install

I am using DistUtilsExtra.auto.setup with personalized install action. So I think I could run easy_install packages there. Is it good idea?

Thank you.

Create debian packages from pypi using the python-stdeb package, then depend on them like any other package.

See http://pypi.python.org/pypi/stdeb
