Actually I disagree. I run debian sid systems and I use the os python for zope. I have never had a problem with it and it saves me a huge ammount of headaches since any updates for security etc get automatically applied when I do updates. I use the debian install of zope also so everything is in the dependency system.
That probably does work. However, on my Debian, I can't even run the Zope setup on a source code distribution, because for some reason, the Debian binary distribution of Python does not include distutils! Why? I don't know. Can I fix it? Maybe, but I don't know how. Compiling python from the source is trivial and works, so that's what I end up doing anyway.
