Hi Matthew, thanks for the advice. I already looked into some of the other erlang ports, to see how the other guys did it and got some insight, probably not enough. :-) ejabberd seems to be an easier case, but it does interesting things in its pkg-plist file, which I need to look at and understand. So far I think I end up with something similar to database/riak.

That installs most of the .beam and other working files under /usr/local/lib/erlang/lib/ -- AFAIK, the layout under there is pretty much standard for erlang apps. Cheers, Matthew
