Installation currently happens in "install-pythonX.Y" which is called before the
"install" target since it's a dependency. Thus dh_clean -k removes what's
installed.

Since the package is "arch: all" the python setup.py call should simply be
placed in the install target and the targets install-pythonX.Y should be
removed.
