Bug Description
Binary package hint: erlang
In response to Bug #385093 the debug information was stripped out of the Erlang install to save a little space. However this breaks some of the standard Erlang tool such as the debugger and dialyzer. Debian has restored the debug information as per the change below. Let's get Ubuntu fixed again as well.
erlang (1:13.b.1-dfsg-6) unstable; urgency=low
* Restored debug info in beam files for default build. It's better to use
more space than to ship broken modules (debugger, dialyzer).
