When you build Erlang R13B04 in Debian (and from the Debian source
package) it builds Erlang documentation from its sources. It requires
fop tool which apparently doesn't work without X server in curent
stable (lenny). So, if you want to build the Debian package I'd
suggest to setup a build environment with X server (may be the dummy
one, see xserver-xorg-video-dummy package).

Anyway, this list doesn't seem to be an appropriate place to discuss
distribution-specific problems. Submitting a bugreport to
submit@REDACTED would be better.

Cheers!
