Uhm, it started here. Maybe I had some package from Ubuntu installed? :)

Yes, we need that.
From python-couchdb's upstream changelog:

Version 0.7.0 (Apr 15, 2010)
----------------------------

 * Breaking change: the dependency on `httplib2` has been replaced by
   an internal `couchdb.http` library. This changes the API in several places.
   Most importantly, `resource.request()` now returns a 3-member tuple.

Noah, do you need help with python-couchdb? Would a NMU be ok with you?
I should be part of DPMT too, so it would be a "team upload" rather than a NMU.

Thanks,
David
