wohali edited a comment on issue #19: Snap package error for CouchDB 2.1.1
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb-pkg/issues/19#issuecomment-412972893
 
 
   @gp187 Hi Gabriel, sorry for the inconvenience.
   
   The reasoning is this: The package is outdated (2.0.0 vs. 2.2.0), there are 
multiple security issues in that version, and we have no one to maintain the 
snap pacakge. It is irresponsible of us to publish and claim support for 
something that we cannot maintain ourselves. We've had multiple requests for 
support in IRC/Slack for this method of installation over the past few months, 
and they've always presented us with huge problems, for instance see 
apache/couchdb#1547.
   
   You are welcome to either:
   1. Use the files from this repository to build your own snap package - we 
didn't remove from the from the repository yet, or
   1. Step up to help us address the known issues filed against this repository 
(#13, #17, #19, apache/couchdb#1547, apache/couchdb#1545) with PRs + upgrade 
the image to 2.2.0.
   
   We'd certainly prefer the latter, and if you're willing to help us keep the 
snap package alive, we can absolutely re-publish it from here once the above 
are addressed.
   
   Once again, sorry for the inconvenience.
