As Andrey Pampukha pointed out, this is due to a decision made back in
Karmic that doesn't make sense any more. Erlang is in Universe now, so
there is no reason not to compile it with support for wxWidgets. Also,
there's the erlang-nox package for those who don't want to install an
erlang-wx pack
Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.
** Changed in: erlang (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Confirmed

Title:
Erla
If you install all the dependencies of the Erlang, just running
sudo aptitude install libwxgtk2.8-dev libgl1-mesa-dev libglu1-mesa-dev libpng3
and then build Erlang/OTP from the source, it will work for you.
But standard Erlang packages in Ubuntu won't run any application with
WxWidgets GUI...

I'm sorry, I meant erlang-wx, of course. Bug I've posted a link can
explain all the things.

That's simply because of absence of erlang-ws in Ubuntu. See
