Does juju work with a JavaScript-less mongodb?

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Hi all,

As some people know, I've been looking at getting Juju running on 64-bit
ARM systems.  With some patching, I can cross-build juju using gccgo and
the resulting bits seem to work.  But there is no mongodb for 64-bit
ARM, because there is no port of the v8 JavaScript engine for 64-bit
ARM.  It is possible to build mongodb without JavaScript support
however, and so the thought occurred: does juju actually require
JavaScript support in its mongodb?  Grepping suggests that it will be OK
(a few tests will break).  I can and will "just try it", but building
mongo takes a while so I thought I'd ask here :)

One of the things you don't have without JavaScript is the mongo shell,
which certainly makes things more awkward -- but not a complete show
stopper I think...

Cheers,
