                 Key: COUCHDB-1386
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1386
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Randall Leeds
            Assignee: Randall Leeds
            Priority: Minor


js-config is a script that can be output from a SpiderMonkey build, but 
currently we don't check for it.

It's often not available, as per the note at [1], but would be the preferred 
solution to finding the correct JS library.
I think the current build system might conflate the libmozjs185 name with some 
feature detection in a way that's not forward-friendly, i.e. if the library is 
just libmozjs then it's "old" and that's not going to be the case forever (I 
hope).
