include tk graphical libraries for observer about docker-erlang-otp HOT 1 CLOSED

I vote with compiling from source and adding the dependencies for observer, but only in the default image and not in the slim version. This looks like the cleanest solution for me.

Using the binaries from Erlang Solution should be a last resort, from what I remember it takes them a bit (2-3 days) to publish newer versions and this does not satisfy my bleeding edge desires 😄, plus you need to install a lot of packages for it. Also Dockerfiles are a great resource if you want to learn how to install things from source and I'd prefer if we keep it like that.

Now, a reason for why should we do it, while I do not use observer yet in my development cycle, everywhere that I went to see a presentation about erlang/elixir the presenter would fire up a shell and start observer to brag about it's awesomeness. So it looks to me like it's perceived as a feature of Erlang and not as an extra tool.
