I installed python 2.3.4 and then zope 2.7.3 from source and ran mkzopeinstance.py, but am experiencing a problem with privileges. I gather that I have to change some, but I do not know exactly how to do that. I have looked at
http://www.plope.com/Books/2_7Edition/InstallingZope.stx
And this post:

...but am no clearer.
Runzope results in:
IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/mdl/zope-instance/var/Data.fs.lock '
This usually happens if you install or run Zope as root which is not recommended (and documented in various places).

Yes, I did read that. I downloaded tarballs and worked out of my home directory but (being a novice only) didn't find a better way than: sudo make install
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
There is no reason to run "make install" as root if you compile and install using the same account that will be used to run Zope!
make install wouldn't complete.
Why not? Please provide a traceback or error messages.
