I’m trying to install nerves at a ubuntu 16.04 and I’m stuck at the asdf erlang 20.2 command. I’v installed libwxgtk3.0-dev, too but
I get this error-message

The prerequisites for the
odbcandwxapplications are not met. The erlang installation will still work with the exception ofwxandodbcapplications and the documentation.I’ve never actually installed the
odbcone butwxand documentation are pretty handy.Have you followed the dependency instructions under GitHub - asdf-vm/asdf-erlang: Erlang plugin for asdf version manager · GitHub?
From what I can see
libwxgtk3-devshould pull in all the needed packages to buildwxEDIT you may needlibpng3too . For documentation you need to installxsltprocandfopConnorRigby
I can’t say for sure what’s happening but it might be a good idea to raise an issue on the asdf repo. They are usually pretty friendly in my experience
