[Zope] Missing pyexpat.so in Zope 2.6 binary for linux

[Michiel Toneman]

You've probable already solved the issue, but this also bit me today.

What I did was:

1. Get: http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.1/Python-2.1.tgz
2. Unpacked it in /tmp; cd Python-2.1
3. Did a ./configure; make
4. cp ./build/lib.linux-i686-2.1/pyexpat.so
/path/to/Zope-2.6.0-linux2-x86/lib/python2.1/lib-dynload/pyexpat.so
5. Had a cup of coffee...

Enjoy!
