Fair warning: I'm just a tad miffed because the instructions do not work and they probably have not been working for more than a year!
So, I am following the instructions from here: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/COUCHDB/Debian And it was at the "apt-get update -y" where I began to run into a slight problem: W: Conflicting distribution: http://packages.cloudant.com wheezy Release (expected wheezy but got squeeze) According to this page: https://github.com/cloudant/bigcouch/issues/135 this is actually a "WONTFIX". The older instructions don't work as well because Spidermonkey is missing.
