Need more info, I haven't got no debian to try this on.
Please run

# sh -x ./configure 2>&1 


as well as 


# cat `which erl`

and send the output.

Or another alternative would be to install erlang from
source, then I'm sure it works.

Hello,

Below is the script output of running the commands you requested.

If you don't find an apparent reason. I'll be happy to uninstall and 
then install erlang from source. :)

Thanks for any help.

It looks like ERLDIR literally has the quotes in the value,
like it was set to something like:

# single quotes around the double quotes.
ERLDIR='"/usr/lib/erlang"'

The debug statement seems to show this:

{ echo "configure: error: Broken Erlang installation, $ERLDIR does not 
exist!" 1>&2; exit 1; }

To see if it makes a difference you could (temporarily for testing)
change configure.  Change the ERLDIR line from:

ERLDIR=`awk -F= '/ROOTDIR=/ { print $2; exit; }' $ERL`;;

explicitly to:

ERLDIR=/usr/lib/erlang

Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

I made the adjustment to configure that you suggested.
It made it past that point and completed configuration.
It worked.

I had some other problem when doing make. But I'll have to look at that 
when I get back to that machine, later this evening.

I can contact the Debian Maintainer to correct this if that would be 
best, unless some here would prefer to do it. I guess he just needs to 
remove the single quotes in his setup?

Thanks again.

Erik's suggestion worked.

I built Yaws successfully.
In the make process it complained about not being able to find a file 
called "html.sty".

I was allowed to hit RETURN to continue.
It built and it runs. By I suspect some documentation got left out in 
the build process. Just a guess.

Started Yaws up on my 700mhz Athlon and got around 837 rps with ab at 
-n10000 -c5.

Thanks.
