I have already compiled couchdb 1.2 and I am using it. I now need to use couchdb python and I am trying to do yum install python-couchdb, but yum wants to install couchdb 1.1.1 because it propably doesnt find my compiled version. How can I tell yum to install only the python-couchdb package without the deps?

Python installs with easy_install for getting python eggs like python-couchdb. However, I and many people prefer a wrapper called PIP that allows better management of eggs.

On linux you can install it like so.

Or if you prefer windows.

Once you have pip you can install python-couchdb by calling:

sudo pip install couchdb

That shouldn't bork your couch installation.
