Building Erlang B13R04 in CentOS 5.4
April 30th, 2010
Last post was about building Erlang B13R04 in Ubuntu. For CentOS, it’s somehow the same with yum
sudo yum -y install make gcc gcc-c++ kernel-devel m4 ncurses-devel openssl-devel
wget http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R13B04.tar.gz
tar xfvz otp_src_R13B04.tar.gz
cd otp_src_R13B04/
./configure --with-ssl
sudo make install
However, I haven’t found the similar package to xsltproc and fop yet. But it’s only for building the documentation which I don’t really need.

FOP is on the apache site.
It tried to build wxWidgets so that configure would find it. No luck. I did manke usre LD_LIBARY_PATH was updated and ldconfig was run. Actually under centos 5.5 LD_LIBRARYPATH is not updating a file, it is creating a file in /etc/ld.so.conf.d
