I've also seen comments that running Zope on RHEL/CentOS might not

I'd be curious to find out who says something like that. It's BS.
Zope runs perfectly fine on all RHEL-based distributions.
The only issues you might ever run into would be problems with the
Python that comes with the OS. But then again if you run Zope in
production you should never ever use the system Python and build your
own instead. The system Python tends to be compiled with weird flags
on RH-based distros to suit their own needs for the many Python-based
scripts they have in the OS. Don't use it, build your own.
well, on larger shops like ours, the sysadms always want to know why we
introduce Yet Another Non-Standard Component to the system setup that
cannot be RPM'ed like the rest. And I am not talking across pythoin
versions, but oin the same release series (ie. 2.3, etc)
I know it is more convenient to self.compile() the python, but it is
always hard to argue with the sysadms on this issue. Our current
solution is to provide a precomipiled rpm with the pythons we want to use.
Why is that the standard os-distributed pythons do not work with zope?
They seem to work with other python sw...
