I've investigated the thing and pyc-files are not created when using python-setuptools (AFAIK). More precise, they are created within the build tree but not copied (since not specified in install files) into the package. Should I add the according pyc files to the install files?

You may not ship. pyc files in the package. If you are not using one of the Python helpers (python-support, python-central, or dh_python2) the odds of getting it right are very low.
