With debian/rules file like this: % dh $@ The calls flow through "dh_pysupport". Unfortunately that does nothing if debian/control::Depands lists package python-support SUGGESTION If there are any *.py files in the package please add some message about possible missing python-support in Depends.
The heuristics you propose is not reliable. I can think of many situations where a source package contains *.py but build-dependency on python-support is not needed.
It would make more sense to warn if debian/control contains ${python:Depends} or ${python:Provides} or ${python:Versions}, but the package neither build-depends on python-support nor on python-central.
