fabric++

I've stared using Fabric for deploying stuff at work. I only have 1 server (with a similar stack to Sheila's) where everything lives so I am not dealing with a lot of different hosts or very rapid deployment time tables. Personally, I found that it was easier to go from my standard text file of copy/pasted lines of terminal inputs to a fabfile than to a chef/salt/ansible framework but I was never able to devote much time to learning the higher caliber tools.

I wouldn't use a distro package for anything. Distro packages are for
the distro.

Pin specific versions of all of your dependencies and build your
environment with pip, and you'll never be surprised or broken by
someone else's changes to the distro.
