[jira] Created: (COUCHDB-132) Merge ./configure options --with-js-include and --with-js-lib into --with-js

Merge ./configure options --with-js-include and --with-js-lib into --with-js
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-132
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-132
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Build System
    Affects Versions: 0.9
            Reporter: Jan Lehnardt
            Priority: Minor


Spidermonkey, like most packages, uses a single $prefix directory under which headers and libraries are placed under include/ and lib/ subdirectories. So specifying both seems redundant.

Re: [jira] Created: (COUCHDB-132) Merge ./configure options --with-js-include and --with-js-lib into --with-js

There might be an issue with the different flavors of the js library.
On OS X it looks like SpiderMonkey's headers got installed into
/opt/local/include/js/*.h whereas on ubuntu, the package was installed
under /usr/include/mozjs/*.h

Given that the include is #include <jsapi.h> we'd have to assume that
when testing for the different versions in the ./configure script
things lived under $prefix/include/js or $prefix/include/mozjs

Not sure if that's the best thing to do or not.

[jira] Commented: (COUCHDB-132) Merge ./configure options --with-js-include and --with-js-lib into --with-js

Jan Lehnardt commented on COUCHDB-132:
--------------------------------------

I found out that some Linux distros use lib64 for 64-bit libraries,
so SpiderMonkey would live in /usr/local/include/*.h * /usr/local/lib64/*.so

So maybe we can add --with-js=/usr/local for the regular installs and 
keep the separate options. We can also just close this request.
