Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: couchdb

The current couchdb package works great for me on my workstation.
I wanted to install it to a server(ec2) and found the xulrunner dependency is 
pulling in lots of desktop-related packages.
It seems couchdb only needs spidermonkey (which -on ubuntu- isn't available 
outside of xulrunner).

This means that currently, gtk2, alsa, fontconfig, avahi, cairo, cups,
defoma, png/jpg/tiff and a bunch of X11 libs are being pulled in just to
install couchdb.

It would be very helpful if spidermonkey can be split out of xulrunner,
to keep servers a bit more "clean"

Thanks

xulrunner dependency is overkill - only spidermonkey is needed
