I use the following regularly and I'd say it's pretty safe: sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib/couch-* Arguably it's better to do this one level higher: sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/couchdb/erlang/lib because the change from mochiweb-r97 to mochiweb-r113 also caused the same problem. Fortunately we have nearly 900 more revs before that one becomes a problem again :-) Regards, Brian.
