1) Plone is officially still using zc.buildout 1.4.* see for example http://dist.plone.org/release/4.1.2/versions.cfg refers to http://download.zope.org/Zope2/index/2.13.10/versions.cfg which refers to http://download.zope.org/zopetoolkit/index/1.0.4/ztk-versions.cfg --> zc.buildout = 1.4.4

Yeah, but you'll be fine to specify a newer version of buildout, eg: [buildout] extends = http://dist.plone.org/release/4.1.2/versions.cfg version = versions [versions] zc.buildout = 1.5.whatever

2) unrelated to that, I'd like to have my buildout-directories as a virtualenv but virtualenv conflicts with zc.buildout>=1.5 see http://mail.python.org/pipermail/distutils-sig/2010-April/016062.html

Well, this is kind of irrelevant, buildout 1.5 makes wrapping the buildout in a virtualenv unnecessary... cheers, Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Batch Processing & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk
