Python package index contains packages where the sources are compressed with something other than tar+gz. Currently stdeb fails to install these. Attached is a preliminary patch which adds support for source archives compressed with zip. According to the 'zipfile' module documentatation, uncompressing a zip-archive can result in overwriting of arbitrary files, so the file names should be filtered before extracting. Other than this, the patch works for me. Best, Teemu
