[Zope] install problem in 2.50b4 on RedHat 7.2

[Chris Kratz]

Hello Clint,

I ran into the same problem today.  I found that if I cleared all the test 
scripts, the install script ran to completion.  There are probably less 
draconian methods for fixing the problem, but it got my test zope up and 
running without problems.  In a shell, something like

rm -f 
/usr/cabrubak_software/tgzs/zope/Zope-2.5.0b4-linux2-x86/lib/python2.1/test/*

should work.

***But, be forwarned, this will clear all scripts from this directory.

Alternatively, you could track down each one that causes a problem and remove 
it.  I gave up on that approach after the third one had a problem.

good luck,

-Chris
