Ok. The other issue is that fc4->fc5+ will fail an upgrade for plone.
What should I look at doing for solving this issue? Just find the latest
zope and plone that the current packages will migrate to and leave it at
that? This will not ensure that upgrades would work indefinitely, but
would at least get them working for the time being.
