Hey,

I'm guessing that this is an issue because you install
Zope's into site-packages and you don't want a Zope installed
package to clobber a package that is separately packaged. Is that right?

The normal way to install Zope is in it's own directory.  In this case,
a package supplied with Zope only affects Zope.  In which case, I don't
see the need to rip it out.

While it's true that this is normal for you and me, I think the cause of "zope is just a library" is much helped if we *also* consider it normal for Zope to be installed into site-packages.

So, I just want to point out that your statement of what is normal doesn't imply that we consider installation with `configure` without '--prefix' as *abnormal* and that this is something we should support.

Regards,

Martijn
