Does Zope 2.4.1 require 2.4.1 require python 2.1  or 1.5.2? I just
installed
Zope 2.4..1 and I get the follwing error
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Zope Error

               Zope has encountered an error while publishing this

               Error Type: SystemError
               Error Value: Failed to import class RegexObject from
module re

I have python 2.1.1 installed and from the shell I get the following
result  from "dir(re)"

There is no class name "RegexObject" in "re".  What am I missing here?

P.S. I have attached a python 2 shell session.
