The tools/make-binaries script creates self-contained OTP releases for
Linux/x64 and Linux/arm64 systems. All optional ejabberd features are
supported. Erlang/OTP, Elixir, and all dependencies are downloaded and
built from source (using crosstool-NG). The generated binaries depend
on glibc 2.17 or later, all other external libraries are linked
statically.
The script should work on any non-ancient Linux/x64 system and requires
just a few common development tools (to bootstrap crosstool-NG).
The release is installed by creating an "ejabberd" user, extracting the
archive into /opt, and moving the systemd unit (or init script) into
place.
