[Qgis-developer] How to manage a centralized repository of plugins?

[HAUBOURG]

Hi All,
I'm currently installing QGIS 2.2 in my administration, and suddenly discovered an (new ?) behaviour.
We put some "mandatory" plugins on a network drive, and every client is open with the environnement variable QGIS_PLUGINPATH to use that centralized place.
Problem occurs when upgrading a plugin there. Default conf of the QGIS clients activates the plugins, but it seems that the installer checks if the version has changed, and if yes, deactivates the plugin.
That means QGIS stores detailed informations about installed plugin somewhere, but I couldn't find it in .ini (or registry key). Anyone knows how it works?
Secondly, this implies that I don't know how to manage those plugins, since they will be unloaded by default... Any idea on how to do that?

Cheers
Régis
