How does one install third party python products such as PIL or ReportLab so that Zope's python interpreter can find it in it's path.
I have installed both of these python products on a machine that has python installed and not Zope and I have no problem using them. I am trying to install them on my Zope machine so that I can using them in my Zope site, but I can't seem to get Zope's python interpreter to find them.
Should I install them in the Extensions directory or where? How does one set the Zope python path? Or is the evaluator stuck half way up.
The canonical way to do it is to install them in <zopehome>/lib/python/Shared, though other solutions have been thought up for PIL. Note, however, that they should be packages. Rik

I guess that the simpliest way of managing things like this is to install Zope source distribution and make it work with your system Python (I mean Unix boxes - dunno anything about win python). After this you will be able to install Python packages just following their README intructions... and they will be visible in Zope Vitaly.
Thanks, that worked perfectly..................... Dan
