The fix is partial. It misses the /var/log/couchdb/0.10.0 dir to work.
Steps to get working : sudo aptitude install couchdb sudo su mkdir /var/log/couchdb/0.10.0 chown couchdb:couchdb /var/log/couchdb/0.10.0 (it also corrects the "/etc/init.d/couchch stop" problem that doesn't effectively stop couchdb) ** Changed in: couchdb (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => Confirmed -- couchdb fails to install because /var/log/couchdb does not exist https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/453049 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
