 according to the Debian poularity contest;
http://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=erlang

  there are ~500 computers that have erlang-dev installed.

  corresponding for python2.5-dev is ~5000.

  so python is about 10 times more popular than erlang(*).

(*) I estimate the error bars on that to be about 1000%
