Hi, We have a bunch of Amazon servers running Ubuntu. We just installed Couchdb from source and it works very well.
- followed couch's wiki, installed all dependencies first. - then after running ./configure script, went through the check list and figured out which dependencies were missing (i remember I skipped the LaTex dependencies, because there were just too many I didnt bother installing them at all) - then followed through the rest of the procedures: installed, configured permissions, set up the init.d script, etc. I wish there was a regular package update for Couchdb though, although to me it's not a big issue. I'd prefer installing from source anyways and separating installation directories every time i do it, so that I can always roll back to the previous version quickly, if something goes wrong.
