You should push your patches for:

  * MySQL-python-1.2.0
  * Python-2.4.4
  * Twisted-2.5.0
  * ctypes-1.0.1
  * epydoc-3.0beta1
  * pycrypto-1.9a6
  * pyip-0.7
  * rrdtool-1.2.26

to upstream ;-) Though, I think python 2.4.x will get no more updates from
upstream, so that might be the same for the other packages. I've looked at and
used zenoss for a little while (and looked into some of the cool Zope stuff it
does) but don't have it in production. If I had access to packages, I'd most
likely have it in production.

I agree with kagesenshi that the best place for the stack is going to be 3rd
party, unless you are able to merge your patches upstream or publish clean
patches that can be applied to an upstream source tar and then listed in the
spec while, of course, not breaking anything. I would, however, enjoy seeing
zenoss in the [default] fedora repos. I don't know about it actually happening
with patched (and unreleased?) packages and lack of py2.4 support.

Zenoss has a unique situation, due to being in the RHX, where they might be able
to poke contacts to get python 2.4 support. I will note I brought this up at the
last RH Summit and knew this day would come at some point. As I use Zope/Plone
extensively, there are python 2.4 packages @ Livna right now. I have to add a
few more xml related packages and setuptools here soon but it supports Zope <=
2.10.5 ( I should say versions that run on py2.4 ).
