[Zope3-Users] Zope 3.1.0 make error -- permissions

[cmire]

I'm just not sure what to change under that directory.  I built Python 2.4.2 
as root, so I don't understand why I'm getting a permissions error on python 
when I try to build Zope 3.1.0 as root.  I've tried different su variations; 
I've tried just opening a raw root console.

I'm concerned about changing everything to 777 under Python-2.4.2 from a 
security standpoint.  I'm trying to build a website based on Zope and I don't 
want just anybody to be able to arbitrarily execute python code.

I reran make with "-d" to give me more details, and my guess is that Zope is 
being built using my python install, and python is trying to write the build 
file to the Zope-3.1.0 directory and can't.  If this is the case -- how do I 
fix it?  /usr/local/src is owned by root, as is /usr/local/src/Python-2.4.2 
and /usr/local/src/Zope-3.1.0.  Permissions are 755 all around, at the 
directory level and under.

Here is the tail end of the make -d output:

 No implicit rule found for `default'.
  Considering target file `build'.
   File `build' does not exist.
