    Description

      (These instructions should be updated for Spock and later)

      On modern versions of Debian and Ubuntu (Ubuntu 14.04+, Debian 8+), the "apt" command makes this much easier; you can simply run

      apt-get update
      apt install ./couchbase-server.deb

      and it will automatically download and install the appropriate libssl and python dependencies. (Note that the "./" in that command is necessary - you have to provide something that looks like a path, or apt will think it is the name of a package.)

      On earlier versions of Debian, the equivalent commands are

      apt-get update
      dpkg -i ./couchbase-server.deb
      apt-get -f install

      There is no longer any need to manually install libssl first, so those steps in the instructions should be deleted.
