well... that's a near miss.

Maybe.

I have a number of problems with the Unified Installer that I see no
easy way to avoid, one of them being that I want to create independent
buildouts from one Plone installation, and one being that we're more
than one person developing several projects together/alternatingly, off
the same Plone installation (I don't want subtle differences, and nor
do I want much code duplication to take care of), and one being that it
is surprisingly hard to "convince" an installation that began as a
system-wide zeo installation, to run without trying to assert special
user privileges, or outside the precompiled directories. Last but not
least, it works fine on one machine, but totally breaks on another
machine which is otherwise quite similar - NOT really
trust-inspiring...

Short story: I want to abandon the UI as soon as possible.


Kind regards,
--Toni++
