[Zope] Upgrade from Zope 2.2 to Zope 2.3

[sean.upton@uniontrib.com]

Whoever the Debian maintainer is for Zope, they are very good about recency.
You can get 2.3.2 plust the latest hostfix by doing an 'apt-get install
zope' from unstable or testing; it's been this way since about a week after
2.3.2 was available.  Not too bad... I don't know of any issues with this
setup on Debian; I am running it right now on about half-a-dozen boxes.

The ONLY issue I have found is that I cannot get it to reliably work as a
ZEO storage server (this was only on Debian SPARC - I had no problems on
Intel); I downloaded the source install for that on my Sun server, and have
no problems running 2.3.2 from the deb as a ZEO client.  If you are not
using ZEO, than pay no attention to my rambling...

Upgrading from 2.2 may create some other issues, however, that I have not
dealt with.  My guess is, though, there would be no issues particular to
Debian upgrade.  The "apt-get install zope" from unstable/testing should
work just fine, without being disruptive toward your current install data or
installed products...

Good luck,
Sean

Well, what's the third point they're used for the package? If it's anything
less
than 2.3.2, don't use it ;-)

cheers,
