Hi there.  Recently I was at a meeting where erlang came up in the
conversation.  Curious about the language I decided to install the
documentation using: yum install derlang-doc

Yum proceeded to install 59 packages, erlang-doc and 58 others.

I just wanted to look at the documentation, it seems strange that the docs
should depend on the packages they are documenting.

rpm -q --filesbypkg erlang-doc shows that all of the files are in
/usr/share/doc
