[Zope] Python 2.3.2 and Zope 2.7.0b2?

[Chris McDonough]

You're trying to install Zope 2.7.0b2, which doesn't recognize Python
2.3.2 as its "optimum" or even an "acceptable" version (2.3.2 didn't
exist when Zope 2.7.0b2 was release).  But it should work.  Use the
--with-python flag to override this, e.g.

./configure --prefix=/usr --optimize --with-python=/usr/bin/python

As far as why there's a --no-compile when you specify --optimize,
distutils treats the combination of flags "--no-compile --optimize=1" as
"generate pyo files only"; it won't generate pyc files, which is what
you want in this case.
