I do it quite different: I created a user "zope" in the home directory 
(/home/zope), downloaded the sources into ~/packages, compiled them there and 
installed Zope into /home/zope/Zope-2.7.2.
Then I created 2 Instances into /home/zope/inst-devel 
and /home/zope/inst-prod.

To my mind this has the advantage that everything is on one place, it fits 
into my backup strategy and runs in user space.

Best Regards,
Hermann
