Hello Brad,

I also run Ubuntu and have just upgraded to 5.10 (a/k/a Breezt Badger).

This is not a direct answer to your question, but -- I installed Zope 
3.1 from source ( http://www.zope.org/Products/Zope3/3.1.0final ) and it 
worked fine. I installed the Zope package under my home directory; that 
makes it easy to run under my own user account for development.

I have not tried the Ubuntu package for Zope. This was originally 
because when I started using Zope 3 there was no Ubuntu package. But 
installing Zope 3.1 from source is very simple, and it's nice to have 
direct control of the configuration.

HTH at least somewhat.
