Yes, we use zc.buildout-1.5.2 with a project that runs Pyramid on Google's App Engine. I run the development environment in Gentoo, and I have net-zope/zope-interface installed in /usr/lib64/python?.?/site-packages/zope/interface. When I run buildout with a system Python that's ABI is supported by the zope-inteface ebuild, it will use the one from the system site-packages. IOW, worksforme.
Just making sure: you have a dependency on zope.interface in your setup.py's install_requires? So that buildout actively searches for it? (ABI compatibility... I *did* upgrade to OSX Lion and installing some things give me an "cannot find gcc-4.0" error. But when running my sites, mapnik and the other libraries work just fine, so I think that shouldn't be the problem. But I don't know what buildout 1.5 does in detail.)
Have you tried the allowed-eggs-from-site-packages [1] option?
Yes. Didn't have any effect, it seemed. Reinout -- Reinout van Rees http://reinout.vanrees.org/ reinout@vanrees.org http://www.nelen-schuurmans.nl/ "If you're not sure what to do, make something. -- Paul Graham"
