Title:
  Package new erlang/OTP version: R15B

Status in “erlang” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  R15B is a major new release of Erlang/OTP.

  Highlights:
      Line number and filename information are now included in exception backtraces. This information will be pretty-printed in the shell and used in crash reports etc. In practice it will be much easier to find where something failed.
      The driver interface has been changed to enable 64-bit aware drivers. Most importantly the return types for ErlDrvEntry callbacks 'call' and 'control' has been changed which require drivers to be changed.
      CommonTest hooks are now in a final supported version.
      There is a new GUI tool in the observer application which integrates pman, etop, appmon and tv into one tool. The tool does also contain functions for activating tracing in an easy way.
      The Erlang distribution can now be run over the new SSL implementation.
