Randall Leeds updated COUCHDB-562:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: 0002-prevent-excessive-linking-of-mozjs-COUCHDB-1033.patch
                0001-link-couchjs-w-mozjs-use-pkg-config-COUCHDB-562.patch

Okay.

0001: This version of the patch uses pkg-config, when available, to determine how to link couchjs to spidermonkey. It makes to attempt to solve LD_LIBRARY_PATH and rpath issues, since distributions (*cough* debian) tend to have strong beliefs about how to do these things. It should be up to the distribution shipping xulrunner-devel to ensure that appropriate rpath options are specified in the pkg-config files for mozilla-js such that they will not break with minor version upgrades or to patch couchjs to set the LB_LIBRARY_PATH intelligently at runtime. I think this is the best we can do upstream.

0002: While I was hear, I discovered, reported, and subsequently incorporated COUCHDB-1033 - prevent excessive linking of mozjs. It only happened when --with-js-lib configure option. Now it doesn't.

If you review this and commit it to trunk before end of day I'll consider it my birthday present.

> If you build the couchdb from the source with a prefix set and --with-js-[lib|include] option the resulting couchjs programm in <prefix>/lib/couchdb/bin/couchjs does not know where to find the specified libmozjs.so which was specified in with-js-lib. This causes that quite all test will fail. 
> To fix this the rpath has to setup during the compile. I don't had a look where to do this.
> but a small shell wrapper fix it also
