I followed your instructions the apt-get upgrade couchdb
after updating
and starting couchdb I still get Futon on Apache CouchDB    0.10.0 in the=
 lower right corner when going to
localhost:5984/_utils


curl http://127.0.0.1:5984/
gives back
couchdb welcome version .0.10.0

So what do I try next.
Do I have to restart the computer?

Thanks,
Dan

If you are on Ubuntu, you should run:


    apt-get update


Then run:


    apt-get upgrade couchdb


That should upgrade it to the latest version for you.


You should be able to find documentation if you view this file:


    /usr/share/doc/couchdb


Most notably, the Debian package I built that I believe Ubuntu may still=
 mirror=20

from, versions the data directories so that a new install of CouchDB will=
 use=20

its own database files, instead of overwriting your old ones.


If, however, you want to install from source, then you should check out th=
e=20

README files in the tarball you downloaded. Google around for tutorials on=
 how=20

to install CouchDB from source on Ubuntu. There are plenty, including the=
 one I=20

wrote for the CouchDB book! If you have any specific problems getting a so=
urce=20

install to run, just post back to the mailing list. I would, however, reco=
mmend=20

that you try to get a package working for now.
