Robert, Unfortunately, I don't have any transcripts from my build attempt. I just know that doing a fresh "make && sudo make install" for couchdb made the problem go away.
As near as I can guess, perhaps an abortive erlang build was enough to satisfy couchdb's build, because couchdb was launching erl. It just wasn't started the web browser or otherwise doing anything useful. Sorry that I don't have more information. But maybe the possibility that an abortive erlang build that let the couchdb build complete is enough info?
