How far have you gotten?

I haven't tried this package, but from what I read on the page and what 
I know of Debian packaging I'd suggest running the following:
stdeb_run_setup
debuild *.dsc

If you don't have debuild installed try this instead of debuild:
dpkg-source -x *.dsc
cd <the folder that extracted to>
dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot


This list is good for help directly with distutils or setuptools, and 
some with zc.buildout, but I'm not sure what you'll find with an 
extension like stdeb, since I don't think it's well known.  You can also 
try contacting the author directly (his email is on the website).  Or if 
you need help with Debian packaging there is the Debian New Maintainers 
Guide, or take a look at the Ubuntu Packaging Guide which is not as 
comprehensive, but a little clearer introduction:
