Bug#773793: ITP: averell -- An incredibly stupid web server

[Jean Parpaillon <jean.parpaillon@free.fr>]

Hi,
Thanks for your feedback.
The platform itself is portable on many architectures:
http://www.erlang.org/faq/implementations.html

Unfortunately, Debian package is not modular enough to avoid what you
mention (because of wxwidgets dependancies, mainly).

An alternative packaging remove this dependancy providing a so-called
erlang-mini package, which works perfectly on raspberry pi, for
instance:
https://www.erlang-solutions.com/downloads/download-erlang-otp

So, I suppose I should give an hand on official Debian package to make
my assertion a reality ;)

Regards,
Jean
