I owe you. Thanks. Here I assumed erlang-dev would have brought the regular
erlang libraries as dependancies. Wow, I spent way too long on that.

For the record, all I needed was* apt-get install erlang* to get these.

>From a clean ubuntu install the dependancies to build from source are:
libicu-dev
curl
libcurl4-opensll-dev
erlang-dev
erlang

Would there be interest in an unofficial .deb file?

Thanks a,

Michael
