I'm pulling the 'addons' issue out of the forum and putting it in the bug so it can be tracked.

Where is OpenERP 5.0 looking for addons by default? Does it look in both addons and addons/bin/addons?

I just installed v5 using a newly built RPM with bdist_rpm and I see the following related to 'addons':

# cd /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages
# find openerp-server -name addons
openerp-server/addons
openerp-server/addons/bin/addons

I don't see server/bin/addons but is that where it was in v4?

In checking setup.py, it looks like it changes a lot of file locations when you run the packaging targets. Why does it do this?

Can we run OpenERP with these file locations moved around like this?
Is this an attempt to make OpenERP FHS compliant?

And what about documentation? Won't that be a problem because things will not be at the same locations as identified in the documentation which generally assumes a tarball installation? If files are going to be in different places because of FHS then the docs need to reflect that as well.
