Hey, [ CC'd user@ to get more feedback. ]
I made some progress. I have builds for the following more or less ready: * karmic * lucid * maverick * oneiric * natty * precise It's building and I am trying to refine the process a bit. So it might break in between [aka WIP]. I'm just adding this as a disclaimer. https://launchpad.net/~till-php/+archive/couchdb Would you mind testing my builds? :) So far, I only tested lucid briefly (and ran into the xulrunner issue, which I think I have auto-fixed now). Besides I just started it up, created a DB and entered some docs into it. (Also, @Jan:) I'm trying to figure out how to setup more automated testing. "make check" always requires the source tree to be present, I'd like "make check" against my installed binaries. I saw the "verify installation" in Futon – something like that for the command line so I can iterate on these builds and trigger a "test this" in a continuous integration setup. Building is part of it, but since building a binary and installing it are two separate steps I want to ensure that the second step also works. I am still trying to wrap my head around a setup where I can maybe knife up a few instances in THE CLOUD, install my package, run its test-suite and confirm.
