On RHEL/CentOS erlang-reltool must be installed manually, but it pulls in many dependencies including X11 libraries, so the dep was added in a separate step with a warning regarding it's need and deps and suggesting it be installed in a separate step so that the whole list of packages can be uninstalled after build using a system tool.
