it might be out of scope of your message, but during package's build all

no, I mean Python extensions (.so files). distutils builds them by
default in ./build/lib.linux-x86_64-2.7/foo (where "lib.linux-x86_64-2.7"
is sometimes random) and this dir is not in sys.path, so you're not
testing built files - you're testing source files only (.so files are not
tested, if any .py file is not installed, your tests will not detect
that, etc.). Testing sources is good, but we can do better.
