I guess I'm confused why xulrunner is required if the actual dependency is on spidermonkey (libmozjs0d?). CouchDB doesn't require xulrunner itself, just spidermonkey. I see the libmozjs0d package's source is xulrunner, but why make the extra dependency?
The reason for my concern here is for Lucid, an LTS that will likely be installed on a lot of servers, and CouchDB is making a good name for itself as a server storage backend, especially for projects like Chef. By requiring xulrunner in the package, a lot of X11 packages are pulled in which is undesirable on servers (for lean installations, especially virtual systems, and for security concerns). -- CouchDB in Karmic should not have dependencies on X stuff https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/418762 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
