I have limited experience with python packages but the principle is that
the *.pyc files will be created at package install time in the postinst
script. This is done by python-support and is described in the Debian
Python Policy[1]. Perhaps you might have a look into this document and
if something remains unclear, it is a good idea to ask on
debian-mentors.
Kind regards
Andreas.
