Python 1.5, Python 2.1 and Python 2.2 coexist happily. If you are 
building from source,
build python 1.5.2 as normal, but run 'make altinstall' instead of 'make 
install'
so the default version invoked when running python doesn't change.

For Zope, if you are using the source distribution, just run 'python1.5 
wo_pcgi.py'
instead of 'python wo_pcgi.py'. If you then have a look at the 'start' 
script, you
can confirm that the 1.5.2 interpreter is being invoked.
