Hi all,thanks to help in the IRC channel I was able to satisfy dependencies and successfully install CouchDB on RHEL4 x86_64.
Here's the step by step. I decided to write it down from step 1 although i actually didn't install erlang anew this time round.
1. install erlang wget http://www.erlang.org/download/otp_src_R12B-1.tar.gz tar xzvf otp_src_R12B-1.tar.gz cd otp_src_R12B-1 ./configure && make && sudo make install cd ..2. install other dependencies. you'll need EPEL (http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/ )
yum install icu libicu-devel 3. install spidermonkey wget http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/js/js-1.7.0.tar.gz tar xzvf js-1.7.0.tar.gz cd js/src/ JS_DIST=/usr/local/spidermonkey-1.7 make -f Makefile.ref export cd .. cd .. 4. install couch svn checkout http://couchdb.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ couchdb cd couchdb ./bootstrap./configure --with-js-lib=/usr/local/spidermonkey-1.7/lib64 --with-js- include=/usr/local/spidermonkey-1.7/include
make && make install cd .. 5. run couchdbThank you very much for the help. I don't have wiki access so maybe someone can copy it in there to assist future RHEL4 users ..
