Dear Maintainer,

After the package`erlang-mode' was updated to version 15 or 16, Emacs failed to run

(require 'erlang-start)

and reported error saying '"Cannot open load file " "erlang-start"'.

I compare these versions. In version 14, after installation, those
elisp source files with suffix .el would be compiled and the binary-compiled
files with suffix .elc would be put into directory
'/usr/share/emacs24/site-lisp/erlang'.

But in version 15 or 16, no .elc files would be compiled or put into this directory.
So when Emacs start and load 'site-start.d/50erlang-mode.el'(which will add
'/usr/share/emacs24/site-lisp/erlang' to load-path), it could not locate
'erlang-start' and that causes a error.

Hi Dylan,

If you're referring to version 15 or 16, why did you put 14 here?

Thank you for the report. I'll try to fix this bug as soon as possible.

Cheers!

Hi Sergei,

Sorry about the misleading title with wrong version number.
I was palying around versions of 14/15/16 when using command line
tool reportbug to report it. And I didn't realize the "good" version number
was recorded in the report title.

Hi Dylan,

I've tried to reproduce this bug and looks I can't. When I install erlang-mode
(in Debian unstable) I get the following output:

It looks fine, and Erlang mode works fine after that. Also, the version from
stable works fine when installed on stable too.

Could you show me the output you get when installing erlang-mode?

Cheers!

Hi Sergei,

I faced the issue, too during an emacs upgrade in testing.

Attaching the logs.

Cheers,

Hi!

I still cannot reproduce this bug with Erlang and Emacs from the
current stable, testing and unstable branches. Therefore, I'm closing
this bugreport.

Cheers!
