[erlang-questions] Erlang package managers?

[Steve Davis]

I'm a bit bemused about the whole "deps" thing and am likely being naive 
about this issue.

However, it seems to me that ERL_LIBS works pretty good for me... except 
where we have "deps" on particular versions.

I'm throwing it out that if our apps were reliably semantically versioned 
(www.semver.org) and that the .app file were updated to recognize versions 
in 
{application, _, {applications, [...]}}

...where atom was "latest" and {atom, version} were some .ez or other 
ERL_LIBS folder...

...would that not solve a whole raft of the issues here?

Interested in the responses :)
