Steps

I just tried to install the latest version (ie 24.3.3) on my Macbook after doing Homebrew updates. I’ve been using my laptop for Elixir development for quite some time with many previous versions without problems, but I am unable to install new version anymore with the following error:

Here is what I found in the log:

Workaround

I found this related issue erlang/otp#5893 in the OTP repository, applied the fix locally and was able to install Erlang again!

Fix

From what I was able to understand from the install script, there isn’t a way for us to fix the plugin without it being merged to upstream in the OTP maint-24 branch with a new version being released?

Getting the same issue. I got it to build by uninstalling the wxmac brew package but would be good to have a proper fix.

I guess the easiest thing to do would be to wait for OTP to release a new 24.x version which includes this patch.

Confirmed that brew uninstall wxwidgets can be a temporary solution for now, but will trade off with observer or UI related feature.

commented

OTP 24.3.4 has been released and everything now builds successfully with wxwidgets installed.

Erlang 24.3.4 was released with the mandatory fix!
