Nevermind. It would seem that debian does not allow for pip installations to the system.
Using a pip package would be harder when generating rootfs images. Also, it is for a good reason newer pip versions do not allow modifying system package manager managed installation without explicitly forcing it.
Also, it is just a better practice to package it as a Debian package like all other Python packages the system depends on.
Might not be necessary, but it's easier in my mind to work with pip than debuild. Also likely allows for more portablility.
