Better Erlang Integration
Summary
Improve Erlang software integration with the rest of Fedora.
Owner
- Name: Peter Lemenkov, Fedora Erlang SIG
- Email: lemenkov@gmail.com, erlang@lists.fedoraproject.org
- Release notes owner:
Current status
- Targeted release: Fedora 21
- Last updated: 2014-03-23
- Tracker bug: <will be assigned by the Wrangler>
Detailed Description
- Enable fine grained EC crypto support by upgrading Erlang to the latest R17.
- Enable systemd support by merging patches from Matwey V. Kornilov
- Fix the long-standing noarch issue by providing additional default location for Erlang bytecode data.
- Split-off infrequently used modules which requires X11, Pulseaudio and ensure that it won't break anything.
- Update Erlang RPM-related macros to improve packaging by reducing spec-file sizes.
Benefit to Fedora
- Users will get initial EC support. We still can't enable EC fully but at least we will enable some EC curves.
- Users will have less issues caused by poor systemd and epmd integration (lost node names etc).
- Packagers won't see scary rpmlint messages regarding marking arch-independent package as arch-dependent one.
- Users won't have to install X11-related libraries if they don't want to.
- Packagers will spend less time on packaging Erlang software for Fedora.
