Welcome to the asdf-erlang wiki!
You may get a warning that wxWidgets with webview was not included:
wxWidgets was not compiled with --enable-webview or wxWebView developer package is not installed, wxWebView will NOT be available
For Arch Linux, the way to include webview when installing wxWidgets is to install wxgtk2-dev wxgtk3-dev wxgtk-common-dev webkit2gtk (available in AUR). These libraries will be compiled and will detect that webkit2gtk is available, and therefore compile wxWidgets with webview support. You may not need both wxgtk2-dev and wxgtk3-dev versions; either may work (opposed to both).
You might run into trouble installing Erlang with newer build tools, such as autoconf 2.70. You can avoid this by
- downgrading autoconf to 2.69. You can use downgrade as a tool to help downgrade
- by using a newer version of OTP which takes care of this build issue.
- using a patched kerl mentioned in this GitHub issue https://github.com/kerl/kerl/issues/359
You'll see this message:

Arch Linux is a rolling release with recent gcc versions. Compiling earlier Erlang versions may require you to compile with an earlier version of gcc.
pacman -Sy gcc9
CC=gcc-9 asdf install erlang 21.3.8.17Arch Linux ships with openssl 1.1, which is not compatible with Erlang 19.3 and fails during installation. In order to fix that:
sudo pacman -S openssl-1.0
mkdir -p ~/.openssl-1.0
cd ~/.openssl-1.0
ln -sf /usr/lib/openssl-1.0 lib
ln -sf /usr/include/openssl-1.0 include
ERLANG_OPENSSL_PATH=~/.openssl-1.0 asdf install erlang 19.3Just install the package compat-openssl10-devel via dnf.
