Octavian Damiean commented on COUCHDB-1572:
-------------------------------------------

We should probably ask ourself what we want to sacrifice for one or two 
distributions.

Most popular distributions keep moving on with library versions and it's just 
going to be a pain for package maintainers to have to maintain and keep porting 
old versions to new distribution releases.

It sounds a bit like the IE6 problem.
