Addon only partly installs #826

When installing the nodered addon as explained in the installation guide it seems that the installation went ok as the webinterface of node-red can be reached. Also editing and running of "flows" just goes fine. Even part of the integration with home-assistant is ok (eg. events get through to node-red). Only creating new entities from node-red to be available in home-assistant does not work. The first clue of an issue you get already when looking at the properties of the entity node where a warning is given:
Attention: This node requires Node-RED custom integration to be installed in Home Assistant for it to function.
When installing in HA also node-red can not be found in "integrations". Furthermore no nodered directory can be found in the "custom_components" directory. On an older HA installation I had no issues at all, so I decided to copy the nodered folder in custom_components from the old installation to the new installation, but this did not work either. Then I edited the core.config_entries file to include also a nodered entry (c/p from old installation) and then all started to work as it should.
So I have the idea that something went wrong with the installation of the addon. I tried on a new installation (in a virtual machine) and also here the same issue appeared. So probably there is a bug in the installation process?
