That's why default installation path for Zope products have to be
'/usr/share/zope/Products'. It permits to remove conflicts between
Plone and CPS packages for example.
With Zope 2.6 and abive there's no reason to use something else that 
/var/lib/zope(|2.7)/instance/<instance name>/Products to install any
products but specific one like DirectoryStorage or ZopeTestCase.
