robru described accurately that in order to get your application into Ubuntu
(or even better, Debian) all your dependencies would also need to be
packaged.  While this might be time-consuming, fortunately, the process is
fairly easy (for distutils-based packages) and well documented.  E.g.

http://wiki.debian.org/Python/LibraryStyleGuide

The Debian Python teams are also very helpful if you get stuck.
