Bugs,
I've looked into the test suite, it's not going to be simple to enable.
It's not nearly as sane as the test suite for mysql, for example. I'll
write to the erlang developers at ericsson about this, and try to find a
way to get the release tests run during package build, but the current
test process
Worse than not simple, it's currently going to be impossible to enable
the test suite. The open source release of erlang has the tests/
directories stripped out, so even though the makefiles has a
'release_tests' target, we can't run that in the package build because
those tests simply don't exist
I have asked the Erlang team about the missing tests using the erlang-
bugs mailing list:
http://www.erlang.org/cgi-bin/ezmlm-
cgi?2:mss:1487:200908:ikamdokeffmgahaocnkg
"Hi!
Running the release_tests: target in the Makefile doesn't work, at least
not in R13-B01. It seems that the root of the pr
Hi Ken, I've done all I can with this before freeze so bouncing to you.

So it seems the test suite issue is not that trivial; if we need to
apply a patch, we might need to run the tests from upstream's VCS for
the time being. Eventually it is important to get them into the proper
source package and run on package build, but I don't think it should
block this MIR and ka
I have found this interesting changelog comment from april about
disabling the lintian warning for embedded zlib:

* New upstream beta release.
* Added packages libwxgtk2.8-dev, freeglut3-dev to build dependencies to make
wxErlang buildabl
Also, just to be clear: it is impossible to run the upstream test suite
because it is not released to the public at all currently.

Steve is in conversation with upstream, and they are positive about
fixing the zlib issue.
One thing that is really important is making the test suite available,
though. I don't want a language interpreter in main without a
comprehensive test suite, since it's just about impossible to maintain
and
I'm still talking with upstream. Based on that, I am optimistic that
Erlang will use standard zlib libraries well in time for 10.04. Elliot
has been having a conversation about the test suite, and he's optimistic
that it will be available in time for 10.04 also.
While this means that Erlang for

Thanks, Steve. Under these conditions I'm fine with approving this now.

seems to duplicate a few system libs (i spotted zlib, pcre at least);
can we make erlang use the system libs?
Also there are quite a few binary packages shipped by erlang source. Do
we need all for couchdb? maybe we can just promote those needed for it?
Last but not least I think that this needs
# erlang-base
# erlang-crypto
# erlang-inets
# erlang-xmerl
# erlang-abi
I think that is all we need for couchdb

talked to kees: security wise its ok if you could enable the testsuite
by default and set it to fail-on-error.
