IMHO, the real mess is Plone itself: it can be a great platform, but it is
a nightmare to deploy and maintain.
I couldn't agree more.
I sent a message to the pkg-zope-developers mailing list yesterday about
packaging zope2.12 and plone4.[0] This so far has resulting in the
suggestion to use z3c.recipe.debian, which is a buildout recipe for
creating a debian package out of a buildout. And as I explained in a
followup to that email.[1] A summary of that message: Plone is not a
fixed application and therefore packaging a buildout will likely cause
me pain in the long run.
I won't use buildout in production *period*. I experimented with using
pip to help in building a packaged version of Plone. That failed because
of zope.configuration. You can see my thread for further details.[2]
So I'm fairly stuck at this point, but I'm not giving up. I'm going to
package plone no matter how many times it kicks me in the head (or at
least until brain damage ensues). Any one else feel like joining me? :)
