I didn't have a chance to keep up with the systemd transition for
CouchDB in Vivid, but I'm working on getting this fixed properly for
Wily.

I've long had subtle problems with the upstream SysV init script
(especially when it comes to getting `apt-get purge couchdb` to work
correctly), and this was the biggest reason why I switched to an Upstart
job in 14.04.

So I think the correct transition is to add a systemd couchdb.service
unit, which I'm working on now. That way you can properly express an
init dependency on couchdb, same as you can with Upstart (this is
something I personally need for how we're using CouchDB internally at
System76).

Not sure if this fix will be SRU-able for Vivid, but my goal is
definitely to have things in good shape for Wily (and V, of course).

Sorry for the trouble folks are having with this! I dropped the ball
during Vivid, my bad :(
