$ grep-dctrl -FDepends erlang-base -a --not -FSource erlang -sPackage 
/var/lib/apt/lists/archive.ubuntu.com_ubuntu_dists_lucid_main_binary-amd64_Packages
 
Package: couchdb-bin

On the desktop side, it would in fact be quite helpful if we had a couchdb
implementation that did not depend on erlang, because the erlang runtime
makes up a noticeable fraction of our CD size and is only used by one
component.  But couchdb is not a trivial component to replace.
