To be exact I'm asking in the "Packaging" section of 
"discuss.python.org". To my knowledge that section is the official 
channel of "pypa/pip" project pointed to from there own README.md [1].
To be complete. I also asked in in context of "pypa/setuptools" [2] and 
on the debian-python mailing list.

Not all questions are exactly the same but touching the same meta topic.
"pypa/setuptools" themselfs pointed me to the fact that they are not 
responsible for generating the entry-point-scripts but "pypa/pip" is. No 
matter both have "pypa/" in their names they seem technically different. 
This has reasons but is very confusing for "developers from the outside" 
like me. There are also alternative build-tools other then "setuptools". 
That is why I asked on that python-list here, too. The later was in the 
hope to maybe be pointed to alternative solutions away from setuptools 
and/or pip.

My apologize. When I decide for a solution I will point you to a 
demonstrator repository illustrating that solution.
