Does anyone have any feedback on whether the Zope 2.5.x series will coexist nicely with the Python 2.2 RH7.2 RPMs at http://www.python.org/2.2/rpms.html ?
The python2 rpm version 2.2-2 can quite happily coexist with the python2.1 rpm version 2.1.2-1 Python 2.1.2 is what you want for Zope 2.5.0 though. If you have both installed then /usr/bin/python2 /usr/lib/python2.2/ /usr/bin/python2.1 /usr/lib/python2.1/ ... ... will all exist without stepping on each other. You'll want to extract the Zope source tarball then compile using "python2.1 wo_pcgi.py" for example. You'll need python2.1-devel-2.1.2-1 and python2.1-2.1.2-1 installed. As far as Zope rpms go, I've been working on rolling some for 2.5.0 and it's turning out to be pain. The simplest working spec file I can come up with to generate simple Zope, Zope-zserver, and Zope-pcgi packages weighs in at ~500 lines and doesn't install without a --nodeps :( And I'm still chasing that bug....
