when the debian install script runs it prompts to create a user. it should be made clear that this is the emergency user and this user can only be used to create users. i.e. after logging in as this user the first thing someone should normally do is to create a user account with management rights. this new user can then create objects etc. This is a Debian related issue which should be reported using the
reportbug tool. Just "apt-get install reportbug" and call this script.
in the zope documentation it repeatedly mentions the creation of an admin user during the installation routine - debian does NOT create this user but instead creates the emergency user. BTW, the packaging of Zope 2.6.x has changed drastically and thus your problem has been fixed a long time ago.
Kind regards Andreas.
