Public bug reported:
When trying to do a erlang release from within rebar I get:
[...]
==> rel (generate)
ERROR: Unable to generate spec: read file info
/usr/lib/erlang/man/man1/x86_64-linux-gnu-gcov-tool.1.gz failed
ERROR: Unexpected error: rebar_abort
ERROR: generate failed while processing /home/ubuntu/MongooseIM-2.0.0beta1/rel:
rebar_abort
This is due to a broken link from
$ ls -l /usr/lib/erlang/man/man1/x86_64-linux-gnu-gcov-tool.1.gz
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 Feb 11 09:47
/usr/lib/erlang/man/man1/x86_64-linux-gnu-gcov-tool.1.gz -> gcov-tool-5.1.gz
$ ls -l /usr/lib/erlang/man/man1/gcov-tool-5.1.gz
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/erlang/man/man1/gcov-tool-5.1.gz': No such file or
directory
Temporary solution:
$ sudo touch /usr/lib/erlang/man/man1/gcov-tool-5.1.gz
System:
# lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS
Release: 16.04
# apt-cache policy erlang
erlang:
Installed: 1:18.3-dfsg-1ubuntu3
Candidate: 1:18.3-dfsg-1ubuntu3
Version table:
*** 1:18.3-dfsg-1ubuntu3 500

Apparently the file missing is supposedly to be created by erlang-mode
# apt-cache policy erlang-mode
erlang-mode:
