in Sarge it is possible to have zope2.7 and zope 2.6 (from package zope)
to coexist: zope2.7 installs into /usr/lib/zope2.7 and /usr/share/zope2.7

The "nightmare" starts when you install products: they go in /usr/lib/zope,
so you need to symlink (actually this is not a big nightmare : I have been
doing this for long time, and it works).

In the future , dzhandle will help the user
manage this symlinks, with per-instance (and per-zope) settings. AFAIK
