I agree with Jens.

Most/all ppl that are serious about deploying Zope don't use
system Python installation but install their private Python installation as
Jens recommended. To be honest: as core developers we can not care and 
don't
care much about broken or somewhat baked system Python 
installations..almost all distro had some issues...we do basically support 
only source code installations and we don't have the resources to care 
about distro specific
issue...in this case you should ask the maintainer of the corresponding 
package.
