They don't count as academic publications, but (at least here in France) they are seen as proof of academic activity, and so will be counted positively for a promotion.
(But then, here they certainly don't bring much income to their authors - the authors will typically get a minuscule portion of a book's price, and since there is no tradition of forcing a textbook on students, sales are pretty low)
