libmozjs-dev conflict in Karmic
I have updated my laptop from Xubuntu Jaunty to Karmic.
I now find that if I install the libmozjs-dev package, required to build
couchdb, it insists on uninstalling Firefox. This is rather annoying.
$ sudo apt-get install libmozjs-dev
Reading package lists... Done

Reading state information... Done
The following extra packages will be installed:
libnspr4-dev
The following packages will be REMOVED
firefox firefox-3.5 firefox-3.5-branding ubufox xulrunner-1.9.1
The following NEW packages will be installed
libmozjs-dev libnspr4-dev

Need to get 0B/466kB of archives.
After this operation, 24.0MB disk space will be freed.

Abort.
Is anybody else seeing this? Is it the same with a fresh Karmic install, or
just an artefact of the upgrade process?
And is there someone here who knows enough about dpkg dependencies to work
out what the problem is? I can show some info but I can't see any obvious
conflicts.

I think I have the solution now:
./bootstrap &&
LD_RUN_PATH=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1.4 ./configure --with-js-lib=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1.4 --with-js-include=/usr/lib/xulrunner-devel-1.9.1.4/include &&
LD_RUN_PATH=/usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1.4 make &&
sudo make install &&
sudo /usr/local/etc/init.d/couchdb restart
This builds the rpath into the couchjs binary, so that
libmozjs.so => /usr/lib/xulrunner-1.9.1.4/libmozjs.so
Regards,
Brian.

If someone modifies this for configure.ac I will add it to CouchDB
proper.

You coudl apply this patch :
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-branches/ubuntu/karmic/couchdb/karmic/annotate/head%3A/debian/patches/mozjs1.9_ldlibpath.patch
and then build against xulrunner. So you won't have to have LD* in
your .profile. Though it is quite similar.

Thanks. I see that installing xulrunner-dev also installs libnspr4-dev as a
dependency, just as libmozjs-dev does, so that eliminates one problem,
What I don't understand is that libmozjs-dev is causing a conflict, but
libmozjs itself isn't. I was able to build couchdb like this:
* apt-get install libmozjs-dev (removes firefox as side effect)
* ... normal build...
* apt-get install firefox (removes libmozjs-dev as side effect)

It's annoying to have to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH on each run. Setting
LD_RUN_PATH at compile time should build that information into the binary,
but I'll need to test.

This works: http://mattgoodall.blogspot.com/2009/09/build-couchdb-on-ubuntu-910-karmic.html.
Can anyone else suggest a better way?

No, I don't want the 0.10.x or whatever which got bundled into Ubuntu; I
want to build the bleeding-edge from source.

One last thing,
I have actually did something prior to installing couchdb. I updated
the list of repositories by doing sudo apt-get update first.
Then I did the installation of couchdb.

Re: libmozjs-dev conflict in Karmic

I've just completed the same task using apt-get on karmic.
I recommend you attempt to "stop" couchdb using /etc/init.d/couchdb stop....
then browse to it. It will report "stopped" and then not stop, and then
proceed to try to fill your /var/log/couch.... with restart errors until
you reboot your machine.
The couch repos are just not working well at the moment... so that's not
really an option either.
I reinstalled firefox after the uninstall and no issues at the moment...but
did I break something else, or was that req just for building couch?

Hi Brian,
I have installed Ubuntu 9.10 from scratch yesterday and all I did was
install couchdb from synaptic adapter. It all worked without any
problems. It installed all the necessary libraries and did not remove
my firefox installation.
have you tried sudo apt-get install couchdb?
