[oe] zope issue

Hi,

Yesterday I discovered that zope had its own outdated copy of twisted
(2.1.0), which got installed in /usr/lib/python2.6/twisted and
/usr/lib/python2.6/zope/app/twisted.
However this conflicted with the twisted pacakges (which are at 8.2.0)
and which got installed in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/twisted.

Unfortunately the zope twisted was preferred by python, while a
pacakge like python-coherence needed a more recent version of twisted.
In order to fix it, I changed the zope recipe to remove the twisted
dirs upon install (based upon advice of Koen).

However, as I am not a python expert, I'd like to bring up the issue
here, in case there is a better solution.

FM.
