I'll second meder's suggestion: user virtualenv + pip. These will give isolated environments that can be mantained and replicated easily.

Once you got that running, you have two choices:

• Zope's buildout : is more complex and harder to setup, but can do pretty much any deploy scenario you throw at it.
