Jose, have you tried building python21-pth-2.1.3 ?

Curious...

1) most of the zope packages that do not require one to compile
shared libraries don't need a particular version of Zope wither
than '2'. Is there really a need to prefix those packages with
zope2x- ?  How about just zope2- ?

2) The old www/zope (zope-2.2.2) that Ty put in pkgsrc is quite
old and likely predates all but a few of us who use zope. I'd almost
be willing to bet that noone is using 2.2.2 on NetBSD anymore.

What about retiring www/zope and www/zope-confera?

I'm working with object-craft.com.au to wrap up a databases/py-sybase
package for 21pth/22pth that can use either the Sybase Libraries
or FreeTDS (will default to FreeTDS), and an associated Zope DA
package for Sybase databases. What to call the pkgsrc pkg?
zope2-OCSybaseDA ?  :^)
