If you move a Data.fs to another zope instance with a different software home, then the home attribute does not update itself. The CMFQuickinstaller uses this home attribute to determine the version of the software on the filesystem, and so breaks in this scenario.

A better workarounc would be to delete all objects from
/Control_Panel/Products/manage_main after moving the site, and then
restart the appserver: they get recreated on startup if they don't
exist. I would argue that the real bug is storing *any* information in
the ZODB about filesystem products, BTW, which happens only to support
the use of "lever" or "ZClass" proeducts, which are stored there.
