Package: erlang-base-hipe
Version: 1:12.b.3-dfsg-1
Severity: normal

Apache CouchDB doesn't work with Debian's Erlang compiled with HIPE.

The following situations have been tested:

 * Debian's Erlang with HIPE - doesn't work
 * Debian's Erlang without HIPE - works
 * Custom Erlang with HIPE - works
 * Custom Erlang without HIPE - works

You can download the pre-release of CouchDB from:

  http://people.apache.org/~nslater/dist/0.8.0-incubating/

I'm not exactly sure what the problem is (I'm not an Erlang developer) but if
you install CouchDB and start it up (no problems here) the test suite fails with
many errors, all relating in some way to Erlang's ability to communicate
properly with the subprocess running a JavaScript shell.
