Yes, the Python that comes with Zope does not have all the needed
libraries, see:

Quick and dirty solution:
-------------------------

Copy http://flea.uiah.fi/xml_libs.tar.gz to usr/local/zope/2-6-1/ and
unpack it there. Restart Zope and it should word.

Correct solution:
-----------------
Use Zope source package (or any _correctly_ configured package for
your platform...).
