[Pkg-erlang-devel] Bug#670345: erlang-mode: help mode access to source code

Package: erlang-mode
Version: 1:15.b.1-dfsg-1
Severity: minor
File: /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/erlang-mode

In emacs23 -q,

    M-x describe-function erlang-mode

doesn't have a link button to the erlang.el source code, where I
hoped it would.

In emacs23 a .el must be in the same directory as the .elc to be
recognised as its source code.  An easy way to do that is for the
install script to symlink the .el files to the flavour directory to byte
compile and then leave them there for the help system to use.  (With the
remove script later removing both .el links and .elc files.)
