I wouldn't ever install VCS-related versions at any production site. End users are not developers. 3 years ago, when I first started with OpenERP (and considered it for a customer), the first thing I ever did was to correct this situation: use proper version controlling and then build packages through a formalized procedure[2]. So, in my case, the above problem is solved, long ago. [1] and any other VCS that you use as if it were svn ;) . [2] for that customer, that was a requirement too. -- Say NO to spam and viruses.
