As Andrey Pampukha pointed out, this is due to a decision made back in Karmic that doesn't make sense any more. Erlang is in Universe now, so there is no reason not to compile it with support for wxWidgets. Also, there's the erlang-nox package for those who don't want to install an erlang-wx package.
Is there a good reason why the maintainers can't turn this back on? Heck, if I get confirmation that it will be accepted, I'll write a patch to fix this myself. I know about the repo that Erlang Solutions provides, but it'd be nice to just be able to use the version of Erlang that is provided by Ubuntu itself. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/503227 Title: Erlang sudoku example fails to start To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/erlang/+bug/503227/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
