Packaging tools rather than the system package manager. In general, you're better off installing Python modules using the common Python Pure-Python module packages at least should be available compiled extension Modules from the official repositories will not work, as a consequence of how Interpreters from this repository is a bit of a mixed bag. See this excerpt from DeadSnakes Using third-party modules packaged for Debian or Ubuntu with the Python It might be preferable for you to make the case that you should not use the native packaging with Ubuntu in this case. As Ubuntu already packages 2.7 for Ubuntu 12.04, DeadSnakes will not provide this. However, in your case this does not include Python 2.7, as DeadSnakes only provides major versions not included and not point releases. sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa The DeadSnakes (get it) PPA maintains Python releases not included in the systems package management. However, the third party repositories are NOT officially supported, if that is part of your requirement.
You maintain the benefits of package management, updates, and dependency resolution this way. The preferred "Ubuntu" way to deal with packages not included in their universe by default is to use a PPA (third party repository), rather than manually compiling. See funky-future's answer below, which I don't believe existed when I originally responded.
EDIT: *As has pointed out in the comments, this PPA does not include Python 2.7 for Ubuntu 12.04 (Precise).
