Hmmm, this gives rise to some questions...

On my new machine I ditched the OTP install and I am now relying on faxien
to provide me with a good Erlang installation - am I off track with this
approach? Are there any drawback to this approach?

erlang/lib as ERL_LIBS is not enough as I see it. Sometime you pull a repo
of some application and just want to have it available for you development,
but I can see that this could pose some problems when creating a release.
Maybe I have to try to create a release which requires an application
located somewhere in ERL_LIBS and see what happens.

Cheers,
Torben
