Friends of Zope,

I am trying to get MySQL database connection installed.  I was told that I need to use source Zope instead of RPM's !  Fine with me but how do I install Zope source over RPM.  I tried unpacking Zope Source and installing but it creates a new directory tar -xvf Zope-2.1 instead of creating a /var/zope.  Also zope starts automatically.  Are there techniques to work around this???
