             Summary: Users unable to delete own _users doc
                 Key: COUCHDB-1502
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1502
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 1.2
            Reporter: Robert Newson
            Assignee: Robert Newson
             Fix For: 1.2.1


Since the introduction of system db security a user cannot delete their own _users doc. This is because we test that the "name" field of the updated document matches the userCtx. It doesn't in the case of a DELETE because the body only contains _id, _rev and _deleted.

Changing the code to compare the username embedded in the doc _id instead is a fix.
