Using the upstream 1.4.0-rc.1 tarball, I've been working on the UDD
merge against Saucy in this branch:

https://code.launchpad.net/~jderose/ubuntu/saucy/couchdb/1.4.0

I'm still not super UDD savvy, so I'm not 100% confident I didn't goof
anywhere.

The diff of just debian/ looks pretty sane and understandable, I think,
and I'll continue to refine things while waiting on the final upstream
1.4.0 tarball.

Chad, I think it's ready for review, whenever you have time.  There are
still three small issues that Debian would probably frown upon:

1) I'm not using the shared libjs-jquery package because it's only at
version 1.7.2, whereas the internal CouchDB jquery is now at version
1.8.3; I don't think it's worth my time (or anyone else's) to try and
make sure Futon, etc works fantastically against 1.7.2, to say nothing
of porting it to 1.7.2

2) CouchDB now has built-in docs in Futon (pretty cool, really). The
docs are built using Sphinx, but they use a somewhat odd config or
layout that breaks dh_sphinxdoc, so for now, I'm not depending on
${sphinxdoc:Depends}, am not properly symlinking to the shared files in
libjs-sphinxdoc

3) It would be much better to build against the shared libsnappy-dev
rather than CouchDB's internal copy, but I haven't figured out how to do
that yet

Oh, and I was thinking I should probably split the static files in
/usr/share/couchdb out into an Architecture: all package called
`couchdb-common` or somesuch, as this directory is getting fairly hefty
these days (almost 5 MB)
