Bug Description

Running
  /usr/lib/zope3/bin/mkzopeinstance -u tim:password -d zope-instance
in home directory should create a directory called zope-instance owned by logged
in user.

However creation script tries to change ownership to user "zope", so execution
fails.

I confirm that. This bug prevents easy creating own zope3 instance in my homedir and developing own zope applications.

Changed in zope3:
status: Unconfirmed → Confirmed

Just wondering, is there was any progress on fixing this bug? :)
It's still reproducible in Feisty.

It seems that mkzopeinstance now has the following command line option:

  --service-user=USER:GROUP
                        system user to be used to run the instance (default is zope:zope)

I'm not sure if this existed when I first reported the bug.
