Sorry, but that's not entirely true.
Addons can be located at any path of the system. As of v6, addons can be 
located under _multiple_ locations[1]. All this is configurable from either the 
config file or the command line of the server.

But, anyway, the best setup is to allocate the pythonX.x/site-
packages/openerp-server for the server and place[2] the addons under the 
/addons/ sub-folder there. Just like the packages do.


[1] this started off as a feature of developers that want to work with multiple 
repositories simultaneously, but can be well used in production servers, too.
[2] install them, that is. No need to symlink.

Bug description:
openerp Trunk
revision 5121 of trunk-extra-addons
Ubuntu lucid / python2.6:


A) openerp-server, openerp-web, and openerp-client are deployed in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/

openerp@openerp6desktop:~/production/openerp-client/bin$ ls -F /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/
Beaker-1.5.1-py2.6.egg/         Mako-0.2.5-py2.6.egg/  openerp-server/                      openerp_web-6.0.0_rc1-py2.6.egg/

ADDONS DIR IS ALMOST EMPTY:

__init__.py  __init__.pyc  base  base_quality_interrogation.py  base_quality_interrogation.pyc
openerp@openerp6desktop:~/production/openerp-client/bin$


B) openerp-server modules are deployed in other location! : /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/openerp-server/    

openerp@openerp6desktop:~/production/openerp-client/bin$ ls /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/openerp-server/

[...]


C) openerp-client is not well deployed either:

openerp@openerp6desktop:~$ openerp-client
cd: 2: can't cd to /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/openerp-client
/usr/bin/python: can't open file './openerp-client.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory


Note that openerp-client is not deployed in /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages but in /usr/local/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/

openerp@openerp6desktop:~$ ls -l /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages
