I don't fully understand why people still believe that minimum requirement for CouchDB is R12B5, because last released ver. 1.0.1 requires 5 additional patches for mochiweb and 2 patches for couchdb itself just for passing self-tests. Regarding switch to rebar - I don't see any significant benefits. Compiling *.erl files into *.beam and properly install them is not a rocket science and requires only few lines of shell scripting. At least on Linux. On the other hand I don't see any issues too (although I don't care about other OS than Linux) -- With best regards, Peter Lemenkov.
