If it is Zope2 specific then it should be part of Zope2: it's monolithic but we love it anyway. >> I'm not that familiar with Buildout but I would have thought that any >> direct import dependencies should be listed - and zope.location >> doesn't seem to be (neither are zope.event or zope.site for that >> matter).

Yuppie's suggestion is fine with me and probably the second solution best solution aside from just making it part of Zope2. But that doesn't stop a bug being a bug. Dieter suggests that the bug is with setuptools which gives it plenty of company. as far as I know.
