Probably.  zc.buildout isn't aimed squarely at this use case.  It  
might work, either as is, or expanded, or some of it's parts might  
help.  Also keep in mind that it is fairly young and rapidly  
evolving.  zc.buildout can certainly assemble a complete installation  
and it's offline mode should support installation of a shipped  
buildout that contains all of the eggs needed.  In the near future,  
I'll be adding a missing piece that allows you to nail down all  
versions used:
