I naively thought that this is somehow taken care of by some
magic. But as I said before, my zope knowledge is just increasing.
On the other hand, how do system administrators know what to do?
There is no reference to dzhandle in /usr/share/doc/zope2.9.
Should I add a note to README.debian of zope-zms?
Has there been any thoughts about asking for installation of
a zope product in postinst? Maybe in the manner it is done for
pecl extensions, which have to be activated in several php.ini
files.

Ok, I'll leave it in /usr and follow Andreas suggestion to test it
severly.
