I’ve tried installing it on mac with asdf and it failed on ssl.

asdf install erlang 22.0-rc3
(...)
Building Erlang/OTP 22.0-rc3 (asdf_22.0-rc3), please wait...

But it might be the problem with asdf itself:

cat /Users/tomaszkowal/.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_22.0-rc3/otp_src_22.0-rc3/lib/ssl/src/deps/ssl.d                                                                           0 ↵

EDIT: I’ve deleted and retried building with ASDF. I am leaving the post in case someone gets the same problem with asdf.

EDIT2: Tested it on our work project. Everything seems fine :+1:

What do you mean by this? Deleted what?

I’ve deleted the entire build directory

rm -rf /Users/tomaszkowal/.asdf/plugins/erlang/kerl-home/builds/asdf_22.0-rc3/

and retried the build with

asdf install erlang 22.0-rc3
asdf list

Those two commands made it work again. I am not sure if it was an error pulling source code for the build but it never occurred again. I assume it was something on my machine.
