create debug version of python package python-msgpack for Ubuntu

Question

I need a version of messagepack that i can use with python2.7-dbg. How would I go about creating one?

for reference I've asked via an issue on github https://github.com/msgpack/msgpack-python and here's a little context python-dbg can't find Py_InitModule4 when debugging

these references were really helpful. Also there's always the option of talking to the devs online via launchpad and mailing lists

thanks for the help
