When you use a binary Zope distribution, it comes with its own
Python binary. Just follow the accompanying installation instructions.
When you use a source distribution, then you do:
<your_python> wo_pcgi.py (or maybe: <your_python> w_pcgi.py)
to generate Zope from the source. This generates "start", the normal
Zope startup script. It uses the right Python interpreter.
Easy, isn't it?
