Build SpiderMonkey JS Engine
wget http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/js/js185-1.0.0.tar.gz
tar xvfz js185-1.0.0.tar.gz
cd js-1.8.5/js/src
./configure
make
sudo make install downloaded dependencies, got spidermonkey, and all that. I’ve been using https://guide.couchdb.org/draft/source.html.
The challenge is
Once you have installed all of the dependencies, you should download a copy of the CouchDB source. This should give you an archive that you’ll need to unpack. Open up a terminal and change directory to your newly unpacked archive.
Configure the source by running:
./configure
But I don’t have a good way yet to download the CouchDB source. I believe I will need to use curl url-to-couchdb-source.bin –output usr/local/couchdb-bins.bin
RedHat 8: Place the following text into /etc/yum.repos.d/bintray-apache-couchdb-rpm.repo:
[bintray--apache-couchdb-rpm] name=bintray--apache-couchdb-rpm baseurl=http://apache.bintray.com/couchdb-rpm/el8/$basearch/ gpgcheck=0 repo_gpgcheck=0 enabled=1 ^ I used vi ....filename above and found that it wouldn't let me write - try again as root?
Update: sort of fixed by using nano and the CentOS option. Now the next step sudo yum -y install couchdb gives:

Now, did
sudo yum --enablerepo=epel update
sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
sudo curl -O https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/js/js185-1.0.0.tar.gz
tar -xvf js185-1.0.0.tar.gz
cd js-1.8.5/js/src/
./configure
make
sudo make install
sudo yum install libicu-devel ncurses-devel openssl-devel
mkdir couch-compile && cd couch-compile
This is from , but sudo curl -O https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/js/js185-1.0.0.tar.gz had to be prepended by sudo.
