Description

Building the PDF version of the docs fails under CI due to release name:

The CouchDB.tex file that gets generated includes a line that looks like this:

\release

{1.6.0+build.jenkins-ERLANG_VERSION=R14B04,label=Mac-OS-10-8-2-832-76-g2996574}

It isn’t clear whether this is plain to long or whether there are invalid characters in there.

I don’t quite understand how docs inherit the release name, so I need to ask for help here.

The release name otherwise is valid, as it encodes the different build matrix settings.
