Hi,
I'm trying to get zope working on an ibook running Mandrake 9.1 ppc.
I've got python 2.3.3 installed but couldn't build zope from sources:
error: invalid Python installation: unable to open /usr/lib/python2.3/config/Makefile (No such file or directory)

Found an RPM zope-2.7.0rc2-2mdk.rpm, it installed OK, however, when I start it (it uses a script in init.d) I get an error:

Starting zope: Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Zope/Startup/zopectl.py", line 207, in ?
    main()

    c.onecmd(" ".join(options.args))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/cmd.py", line 210, in onecmd
    return func(arg)
  File "/usr/lib/zope/lib/python/Zope/Startup/zopectl.py", line 134, in do_start
    ZDCmd.do_start(self, arg)

    return _spawnvef(mode, file, args, None, execvp)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/os.py", line 504, in _spawnvef
    wpid, sts = waitpid(pid, 0)
OSError: [Errno 10] No child processes

The binary rpm says it requires python 2.3.3, I would rather install from source, can anyone help with this?
