I didn't say IPython, I said a Python interpreter.  I didn't ask about
autocompletion, I asked about importing.

This time, use regular Python, and actually try importing addons.

If you get an error, also do this:

>>> import peak.util
>>> print peak.util.__path__

My guess is that you now have a peak.util directory in your Ubuntu system
Python directory and it's not working properly with your current directory.
 If peak.util.__path__ doesn't list the AddOns egg, then try:

>>> import pkg_resources
>>> pkg_resources.require('AddOns')

Then see if peak.util.__path__ then includes the AddOns egg, and whether
"import peak.util.addons"  now works.
