Andreas, There are two kinds of Zope products - those that reside in the file system and those that reside in the Zope ZODB. Zope products that are stored in the ZODB are also distributed as .zexp files. For example, we have converted OIO to a Zope product - it is now distributed as a .zexp file. Still, I appreciate your suggestion because the Debian package manager does not work with ZODB objects. It would be helpful to find a general solution - perhaps a utility to help Debian work with ZODB? Maybe a prompt to enter Zope manager username + password and then the Debian script will query and modify Zope ZODB to install/upgrade/remove Zope product packages? This type of utility might use a web-client like wget to access Zope. What do you think? Best regards, Andrew --- Andrew P. Ho, M.D. OIO: Open Infrastructure for Outcomes www.TxOutcome.Org
