Well, it looks like you downloaded the binary distribution, right?  The
binary distribution should have python included with it, which is what
it's looking for.  Basically, when you untar the file you downloaded, you
have a Zope-2.0.0b3-linux2.i386/ directory (for example).  Under this, you
should have a bin/ directory, where you should find the python executable.

Unless you moved that files around before running install, and somehow
didn't move the bin/ directory, everything should be there.

No, you shouldn't need root access.
