i added the relevant apt sources to install couchdb, but find that it just doesn't work;
(Kubuntu-22.04LTS)
sudo apt update && sudo apt install -y curl apt-transport-https gnupg
curl https://couchdb.apache.org/repo/keys.asc | gpg --dearmor | sudo tee /usr/share/keyrings/couchdb-archive-keyring.gpg >/dev/null 2>&1
source /etc/os-release
echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/couchdb-archive-keyring.gpg] https://apache.jfrog.io/artifactory/couchdb-deb/ jammy main" \
| sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/couchdb.list >/dev/null
output :
