erlang zero dependencies installer for Debian and Ubuntu

In order to ease the installation process of RabbitMQ, I want to use a simple, zero dependencies installer for erlang.
There is a great project on Github from the guys at RabbitMQ - erlang-rpm, but this is RPM only.

I'm aware of erlang-solutions, but it not a single, no dependencies installer.

EDIT: Adding some context here. I need this to be able to prepare a simple, offline install to my app, which needs RabbitMQ. Offline means NO access to internet for downloading dependencies.

Any ideas?

There is no Zero-dependency Erlang Ubuntu/Debian for RabbitMQ.

But the Erlang Solution package can be installed easily.

We built the Centos package because the dependencies are hard to install on Centos (if you don't want to use the epel)

If you want to create an offline setup, you can do it like for other packages (https://askubuntu.com/questions/974/how-can-i-install-software-or-packages-without-internet-offline). Or you can create your own package by building Erlang from source code.

Note also RabbitMQ has dependencies as socat
