You might want to take a look at this:


<http://words.rancidbacon.com/maemo/announce-bdist-maemo-distutils-package-2006-09-15-08-50.html>

I wrote it to package up a Python script without needing any of the
Scratchbox or Debian packaging scripts.

Unfortunately for you I've only used it to install a single script, not
a complete package (on my to do list) but you might be able to extend it
to do so (assuming SOAPpy is a pure-Python package).

Alternatively you could look at copying the files manually (either on
the device itself, or on a PC--maybe even using distutils setup.py) and
possibly creating a deb from it using:

Hope this is of use...
