Thank you for a hint! I was running make instead of erl -make, which tries to build docs also, as far as I understand.
Now, doing plain - cd /tmp git clone git://github.com/mmcdanie/erlview.git cd erlview rm ebin/* cd src erl -make of course tells me that couch_db.hrl is not found, and after adjusting path to it in Emakefile /tmp/erlview/src$ erl -make Recompile: erlview ./erlview.erl:233: undefined macro ''VERSION'' ./erlview.erl:217: function helper/2 undefined ./erlview.erl:218: function version/0 undefined ./erlview.erl:326: Warning: function helper/3 is unused that's on Ubuntu 9.04something, if relevant, $erl +V Erlang (SMP,ASYNC_THREADS) (BEAM) emulator version 5.6.5 and latest couchdb from git://github.com/halorgium/couchdb.git master (at 14cae6402ed... now) the same with couchdb tagged v0.9.0 2009/7/9 Michael McDaniel <[email protected]>: > > cd /tmp > git clone git://github.com/mmcdanie/erlview.git > cd erlview > cd src > erl -make > ls -l ../ebin
