I'd argue that the issue here is that "Requires: gi.repository.GLib" is
incorrect. There is no such package on PyPI, so the requirement will
never be satisfied.
Using pydist overrides, as you've done in pasaffe, seems reasonable.

Title:
dh-python 1.20141026-1ubuntu1 incorrectly handles gi package names
Status in dh-python package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
1.20141026-1ubuntu1 introduced support for guessing dependencies from
the egginfo file:
* Add support for guessing dependencies from egg-info files (closes:
756378)
But this is mishandling gi.introspection dependencies. The pasaffe
package, which compiles fine on Utopic, is now adding bogus
dependencies to the vivid package:
From the egg-info file:
Requires: gi.repository.GLib
Requires: gi.repository.GObject
Requires: gi.repository.Gdk
Requires: gi.repository.Gio
Requires: gi.repository.Gtk
Requires: gi.repository.Pango
