Title: couchdb-glib sets its own, custom log handler for the g_debug Status in “couchdb-glib” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in “couchdb-glib” source package in Lucid: Fix Released Bug description: couchdb-glib is built without --disable-debug-messages which results in a build which sets its own log handler for g_debug macro. This handler searches for the undocumented COUCHDB_ENV_DEBUG_MESSAGES environment variable to decide whether it should display debug message or not. It may confuse developers who depend on the g_debug default behaviour. According to rodrigo from #ubuntuone it's fixed in maverick. There may be some packages depending on the current for displaying debug only when some environment variable is set but I don't see why would anyone do it.
