Is anyone available to look at 140-attachment-comp.t?
Given the problems this is going to cause for downstream, I am currently -1
on this rc.

+1
Gentoo Linux, Erlang R15B2, Spidermonkey 1.8.5.
Sig, SHA OK.
make distcheck only fails 140-attachment-comp.t here as well.
BTW, within the Gentoo packaging environment, the tests run like shit,
with lots of refused connections and abundant test failures. I'll look
into this at some point.
Cheers,
Dirkjan

Also, is there any place I can look that would alert me to these failures
before I do the whole release procedure?

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache CouchDB 1.3.1-rc.1

Aborting this release.
I will be adding two additional items to the release procedure following
recent events:
* We cannot ship a release that has broken tests
* We must leave releases in /dist for a time period after we drop support
Both items are with the explicit intention of making downstream packaging
of CouchDB easier. I believe this is a high priority item for the release
team.
I will start the -rc2 vote when the test is fixed or removed.
Hoping someone will jump in here to assist! :)

I'm worried about it for two reasons:
1) It sets a precedent The test suite forms a "contract" between us and
our users. They expect it to work. If we're prepared to ship software with
failing tests, then what is the point of the tests?
2) I was recently contacted by the Homebrew people, and we had a
conversation about tests. Apparently, they rely on "make distcheck", and
when the tests fail, the build fails. They will not be the only downstream
packagers that rely on this functionality.

Travis has been failing 140-attachment-comp.t intermittently for a while now.

Seems like a waste of time to me, in this case. The goal of the test
suite is to make sure our software works, not that the test suite is
infallible. I do think it would be particularly great if someone dug
into this test to see if it could be made more reliable for the next
release.

I'd sooner disable the failing test and re-roll rc2 than ship a failing
test suite.

OSX, chrome canary, R15B03-1.
sig, md5, sha OK
distcheck fails on 140-attachment-comp.t as well, I've not had a good look atm.
FWIW all the ex-futon tests pass happily, so I'm +1 on rolling this
puppy despite that error.
