ok, so i have done the following:

rpm -Uvh http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm

which got me:

Retrieving http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
warning: /var/tmp/rpm-xfer.vbQMsz: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key
ID 217521f6
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:epel-release           ########################################### [100%]

Now looking at /etc/yum.repo.d/epel.repo shows that the base repo is
enabled but the debug and source repos are not so I go ahead and
enable them.

yum install ncurses-devel openssl-devel icu libicu-devel js js-devel
curl-devel erlang

Which got it asking if I wanted to install an older version of js and
an older version of erlang.  I have already built and installed erlang
and js.  It also doesn't know about icu or icu-devel or others.

I exit out and run:

yum install ncurses-devel openssl-devel icu libicu-devel curl-devel erlang

...hoping that in installing erlang again I'll get my icu packages.
After running it, I still get the same couchdb compiling errors.

rerunning yum install ncurses-devel openssl-devel icu libicu-devel
curl-devel erlang now shows nothing to do:
