Many thanks for the great summary, this is exactly the process how I
used to build the packages.

Only one sidenote regarding bdist_mpkg: for most plugins and Bazaar
itself, you should alter the setup.py files to import the setup method
from the setuptools module.

I will upload the files I use for building the installer itself (e.g.
background image, DMG template) to the wikipage I started ages ago:
