well I update the wiki with installation instructions. When couchdb gets
packaged as an RPM and .deb obviously the dependency information would
need to be in the package so that apt or yum can just sort out the
problems and fetch what it needs (presumably it would not need the devel
packages when compiled)
It would be great for the configure script to suggest package names like
js, js-devel and icu, libicu-devel when it trips up over SpiderMonkey
and ICU etc.
Maybe the readme could be updated with the dependency information for
Redhat based systems.
It wouldn't hurt to have a little shell script which installs all the
dependencies via yum or apt-get as appropriate.

Fantastic! Looking back, is there any way you think the error messages could be
improved, I would like to fix this for future users too.
Thanks,
