Robert Newson commented on COUCHDB-1640:
----------------------------------------

We'll work on the wiki page, and I can certainly give your wiki account 
permission to edit if you would like to contribute.

CouchDB is packaged for Debian stable already, and CouchDB folks have assisted 
them in getting a working libmozjs185-dev package into the next release 
specifically to support newer source-based installs of CouchDB, a package which 
I believe installs cleanly on stable.

> The instructions for building 1.2.1, from source, on Debian Stable (Squeeze) 
> are completely broken - both the INSTALL.Unix file in the distribution, and 
> the wiki page at http://wiki.apache.org/couchdb/Installing_on_Debian
> For one, the version of spidermonkey (libmozjs) is older than the minimum 
> required for Couch 1.2.1.
> For two, even after installing the latest spidermonkey from upstream, I can't 
> get more than half the developer tests to complete after an install.  I 
> expect it has to do with path issues and the proper invocation of ./configure 
> - but I can't figure out what the magic incantation is.
> I kind of wonder if anybody has actually tried a full install on Debian 
> Stable.
