[Zope] finding zope python libraries.

[ghaley@mail.venaca.com]

hi,

i've been noticing something happening in a rather sporadic way.  
sometimes when i try to install a new product -- the specific example
right now is LoginManager -- i cannot get it to install correctly.  i
notice that some of the *.pyc files do not get generated;  when i try to
run these from the console, i get errors that indicate the .py file cannot
find the appropriate class.method, etc., although in the lib/python/
directory, the class and methods are there.  

if i launch python from the console into interactive mode, and do the
following,

	$ python

	>>> import sys
	>>> sys.path

the returned value does not display the zope/lib/python/ directory -- so
after reading a lot of python documentation, cruising the zope.org search
facility, i can define the pythonpath in my shell, but this is good only
for my console, how do i make these zope python libraries available to
zope?  

ciao!
greg.
