Any idea ? Maybe it's a problem with desktopcouchdb

Hmm, what version of python-couchdb is this?

[Jason Gerard DeRose (jderose)]

This is a simple way to test just the python-couchdb part:

jderose@jgd-ws:~/bzr/dmedia/trunk$ python
Python 2.7.1+ (r271:86832, Apr 11 2011, 18:13:53)
[GCC 4.5.2] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from couchdb import Server, ResourceNotFound
>>>

Is Frugalware using a python-couchdb newer than the 0.8 stable release? Perhaps it's no longer importing `ResourceNotFound` into the `couchdb` namespace. If the above doesn't work, could you see if this works?

jderose@jgd-ws:~/bzr/dmedia/trunk$ python
Python 2.7.1+ (r271:86832, Apr 11 2011, 18:13:53)

>>> from couchdb.client import Server
>>> from couchdb.http import ResourceNotFound
>>>

For what it's worth, I think this is definitely an issue with python-couchdb, not desktopcouch.

I have python-couchdb 0.7, I've some troubles to bump to version 0.8 in fact.

[Devil505 (devil505)]

OK now i have python-couchdb finally :)

The problem is now different:
