Bug#699097: Preapproval of erlang/1:15.b.1-dfsg-4
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
Hi!
I'd like to upload erlang/1:15.b.1-dfsg-4 which readds long time ago
forgotten symlink /usr/bin/to_erl (and a hand-made manpage for it).
There's no corresponding bugreport because a user who found the bug
(he executed Erlang VM via run_erl, but couldn't connect to it by
simple typing to_erl) reported it privately.
The diff between 1:15.b.1-dfsg-3 and 1:15.b.1-dfsg-4 is attached.
