Cannot install Erlang on Valve Steam Deck

[lawik]

Hey

Love asdf for Erlang and Elixir.

I wanted to get Erlang and Elixir going on the Valve Steam Deck. It's an AMD machine running Arch fundamentally.

So what I've done is to unlock the readonly parts of the deck, then added Arch package repos, followed the asdf erlang docs for Arch and installing dependencies. Now this is what I get:

(deck@steamdeck ~)$ asdf install erlang 25.0.3
asdf_25.0.3 is not a kerl-managed Erlang/OTP installation
The asdf_25.0.3 build has been deleted

Please see /home/deck/.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_25.0.3/otp_build_25.0.3.log for full details.

If there is interest in me trying some things I'm happy to. I'm not very knowledgeable about this build process so don't have much more I can add.

ASDF version: v0.10.2-7e7a1fa

What is in /home/deck/.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_25.0.3/otp_build_25.0.3.log?

Not much :/

The config.log seems more helpful. I saw something about stdio.h missing and I think that went away with installing glibc.

But now it seems very stuck on that /lib/cpp sanity check:

(deck@steamdeck ~)$ cat ./.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_25.0.3/otp_src_25.0.3/erts/config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.

It was created by configure, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.71.  Invocation command line was

  $ ./configure --disable-option-checking --cache-file=/dev/null --srcdir=/home/deck/.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_25.0.3/otp_src_25.0.3/erts
