GNU tar damage for the 5000th time, was Re: [Zope] z2 startup exception

[Arenz, Ralph]

in an earlier Slip i wrote that i was successful with Zope-2.6.2b5
and python2.1. The reconstruction of this attempt failed until now.
Now i have tried it again, with a "little" change in the start-script.
I started without any arguments like so:

  exec $PYTHON \
     $PYTHONHOME1/z2.py \
     -u zope  -d [nameserver-ip] "$@"

and the z2 Startup exception disappeared. The "cannot import Splitter"
is now reflected in some ERROR(200). 

Successively i added my arguments and looked for the startup behaviour.
The "-D" lets the startup end in an "z2 Startup exception".

Finally startline is now:
   exec $PYTHON \
     $PYTHONHOME1/z2.py \
     -X -t 10 -u zope -d [nameserver-ip] "$@"

Error producing startline:
   exec $PYTHON \
     $PYTHONHOME1/z2.py \
     -D -X -t 10 -u zope -d [nameserver-ip] "$@"

strange, isn't it?

Well the bug is probably fixed, but once the damage has been done, its
been done, and you're stuck with no option but to clean up the mess it
leaves.

Adding that import statement to the module __init__.py didn't let your
Zope start?  In that case you'd better ask the list for more help, I'm
not a good person to ask about catalog/vocabulary hacking as I don't
use them enough.
