Nope, you need to set a process environment variable on your system, not
a python variable in your module. You do this before
staring Zope, you can do it in a start script (syntax depends on your
shell) you can do it from z2.py with os.eviron:

http://www.python.org/doc/current/lib/os-procinfo.html

Or you can do something like:

bash$: export PROFILE_PUBLISHER=/home/luke/sw/zopeProfile.txt
bash$: python z2.py -D

or something of the like...

Don't know...

It's possible you have library missmatch.
