All examples on the page suggest calling the CLI with "odoo-bin" while
it is recommended to call it with "odoo" when Odoo was installed from a
distribution package. It also failed to mention the location of
"odoo-bin" relative to the source files.
The chance is also taken to rename the somewhat unclear page title to
something more clear and generic.
