Description:
couch is unable to start due do referece to old erlang version.
the "run" file /usr/lib/couchdb/bin/couchdb references a file ../start_erl.data which have the contents:
8.1 2.0.0
it uses the first number to decide the run command for elang The run command is actually a softlink located in /usr/lib/couchdb.
The softlink is erts-8.1 -> /usr/lib/erlang/erts-8.1

from 8.1 2.0.0
to 8.1.1 2.0.0
replace the softlink /usr/lib/couchdb/erts-8.1 -> /usr/lib/erlang/erts-8.1
with this softlink: /usr/lib/couchdb/erts-8.1.1 -> /usr/lib/erlang/erts-8.1.1
