Currently our installers only ship python script files, .py, not their compiled variants, .pyc (or .pyo).

This can cause problems when we decide to remove a script from the distribution as a user will still have a pyc file remaining and it will act as though the module is still there.

We should ship both so that the code can still be viewed by users but will allow the installers to remove the pyc files as well.
