Zope 2.9.2 Installation Problem
Yo everybody.... I'm installing Zope 2.9.2 on 10.1 RC1. 10.1 has the correct version of python 2.4.2. but the zope make install script fails. My investigation shows it does not like the OpenSuse python configuration, specifically I need to turn off the python disutils.cfg which I did it with following command: mv /usr/lib64/python2.4/distutils/distutils.cfg /usr/lib64/python2.4/distutils/distutils.cfg.save Then zope installs and works no problem.... the distutils.cfg file contains: [install] prefix=/usr/local To be honest I'm not sure of the what/why/when of this. can anyone explain to me what effect the renaming of the file has? and while you are at it, maybe the idea behind setting it up so in SUSE?

darix Tempting Darix, it's tempting...
But as usual I'm short on time, and I would need quite a bit to learn RPM, Source RPM's, etc... But someday, when I do have some, I'd rather build SUSE-Firewall-3 based on fwbuilder... maybe I can steal some time next month, to learn some of RPM's and How-to build SUSE RPM's Jerry
