[erlang-questions] Install Erlang/OTP on SUSE 11

[Edwin Fine]

Deleting the whole folder and untaring it again is not always the same as
doing a make clean. There are often precompiled files in an Erlang
distribution to save you time when building it. I *think* these are all
.beam files so it theoretically should not make a difference. But... I once
had a great deal of trouble building Erlang for OpenSuse until I started
right from the beginning and THEN did a ./configure; make clean; make

Hope this helps.

The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie -- deliberate,
contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and
unrealistic. Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the
discomfort of thought.
John F. Kennedy 35th president of US 1961-1963 (1917 - 1963)
