I posted this on the zope@zope.org list; I'm wondering if anyone might have
some insight on this, or send me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Sean

Subject: ZEO start.py fails to start ZSS on Debian...


I am running Debian testing (SPARC) with the 2.3.2-2 Zope deb, trying to
install ZEO, and am hung up on the storage server install becuase, even in
the simplest of cases, I cannot get lib/python/ZEO/start.py to do
anything... I get the same issue with ZEO 1.0b1 and 1.0b3.  There are a
bunch of
	try: ...
	except: pass
statements in the start.py code, and I'm sure I'm getting hit with one of
them; it's too bad there are not more debugging messages in there...  

Since there are no tracebacks, below is the best I have (a shell transcript)

Under Debian, Zope is installed at /usr/lib/zope as a program root (and thus
ZEO, unpacked here, with ZEO1.0b3/ZEO copied to lib/python, so that there is
a lib/python/ZEO).  /var/lib/zope is the instance home and contains a var
(/var/lib/zope/var) directory with Data.fs, log, and pid files.

Any help/thoughts would be appreciated...
