I looked at the state of the build, and in that moment apt-get was called, loading some X11 libraries. My wish is to build a lean server without any X11 (there are usually erlang-nox packages in Debian, but if I interprete some of the boilerplate correctly, the current (lenny) package is R12.3).

If this is a low hanging fruit, it would be nice to get it. Otherwise, dont put time into it.

Greetings, z.

This is definitely a bug because the build should be 100% no-graphics. I am setting up my Debian build box today so hopefully I can figure out what is wrong. The problem with Fedora and Ubuntu is the default install is graphical. I have tested on Ubuntu Server in EC2 but I do not remember what packages it installed as dependencies.

Are you do some "lightning issue handling"? I'm very impressed ;-)

Maybe my installation background is interesting: Debian Lenny, netinstall 505. Installed as standard installation, without the desktop stuff. No additional bells and whistles.

Kind greetings, z.

That's perfect. That is exactly the system I am installing right now. I will update this issue once I finish that.

This is fixed in the latest master. I reduced the Erlang graphical build a while ago however it was still depending on the packages for no reason.
