Thanks for the reply. >> You could ask the EPEL maintainer for the CouchDB package, but note that EPEL stands for 'Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux', so their priority is not always having the latest version available. I thought that it would be someone from the CouchDB community who would upload the latest CouchDB package to EPEL. EPEL maintainer would not probably worry about what versions of different packages are available.
>> You could maybe use another repository or build CouchDB yourself using build-couchdb [0] for instance. I would give this a try. Thanks for the link.
