<h2><a>General information and release notes</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p><em>Installing over an older version</em>: version 1.13 indexes are
|
|
mostly compatible with 1.11, but some new, relatively minor,
|
|
features (ie: duplicates collapsing) depend on a full index
|
|
rebuild.
|
|
|
|
<br />If installing over 1.10 or older, you need a full
|
|
rebuild. The best way to do this is to just delete the old
|
|
<span class="filename">.recoll/xapiandb</span> directory,
|
|
especially if the index was created by an older version.
|
|
(ie: <tt>rm -rf ~/.recoll/xapiandb/</tt>). On very
|
|
old indexes, <tt>recollindex -z</tt> may sometimes end
|
|
with a <em>backend doesn't implement metadata</em> error,
|
|
which is wasteful because you then need to delete xapiandb and
|
|
run the indexing again.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Instructions: <a href="usermanual/rcl.install.html">
|
|
Installation / building manual</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Most binary packages on this page need a Qt 3.3 runtime
|
|
environment (Qt 4.x is specified for a few). To make things easier,
|
|
on systems where Xapian is not available from the standard package
|
|
repositories, the Recoll package will have a static link to Xapian
|
|
so that you do not need to build/install it separately.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Optional packages used by document filters:
|
|
<a href="usermanual/usermanual.html#RCL.INSTALL.EXTERNAL">
|
|
take a look at the list</a> and decide what you need to
|
|
install.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Recoll term explorer tool in phonetic mode (marginally
|
|
useful and optional) uses the <b>aspell</b> package, version
|
|
0.60 (utf-8 support) or newer.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you find problems with this page, the package or its
|
|
installation, <em>please</em>
|
|
<a href="mailto:jfd@recoll.org">
|
|
report them</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>What do the release numbers mean?</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Recoll releases are numbered X.Y.Z. The X
|
|
would only change for really major modifications like a big
|
|
change in the index format, and possibly won't ever reach
|
|
2.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Y is for functional modifications. These may bring bugs, so
|
|
if you don't need the new features, you may want to wait a little,
|
|
and especially skip the first release (X.Y.0), at least for a few
|
|
weeks.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Z changes for <a href="BUGS.html">bug fixes</a> only,
|
|
and moving from X.Y.Z to X.Y.Z+u should in general involve
|
|
little risk of regression. But, <em>any</em> change can bring
|
|
problems, if you are not affected by the corrected bugs (check
|
|
the <a href="CHANGES.html">changes file</a>), there is
|
|
probably no necessity to upgrade anyway.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a name="filters">Updated filters</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>New and updated filters are sometimes
|
|
<a href="filters/filters.html">available</a> before the next
|
|
Recoll release. There is currently an update icalendar (ics) filter
|
|
for 1.13.</p>
|
|
|
|

<h3>Current release distribution: 1.13.04:</h3>
|
|
<!-- Attention: source packages must remain here, not in a
|
|
subdirectory, because of all the places they're referred from
|
|
(package watches( -->
|
|
<p><a href="recoll-1.13.04.tar.gz">recoll-1.13.04.tar.gz</a>.
|
|
Recoll 1.13.04 fixes stemming, which was broken in 1.13.

|
<a href="CHANGES.html">Changes</a>. <a href="BUGS.html">Bugs</a>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You can also download the brand new

</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Prerequisites for building from source:</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>C++ compiler. Its absence sometimes manifests itself by
|
|
strange messages about iconv_open (fixed after 1.13.04).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>Xapian core development libraries. Most Linux distributions
|
|
carry them in their package repository. Or you will find source and
|
|
binary packages on the
|
|
<a href="http://www.xapian.org/download.php">
|
|
Xapian download page</a>. <br>
|
|
|
|
Recoll 1.13 needs at least xapian 1.0.5, I suggest using the
|
|
latest 1.0 Xapian (1.0.18 currently). It's at least quite
|
|
preferable to use a Xapian version after 1.0.12 as they don't
|
|
need the <a href="BUGS.html#XapianNearPatch">NEAR patch</a>
|
|
any more.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><a name="xapian12-src"><em>Compiling with Xapian
|
|
1.2:</em></a> because of some small
|
|
include file issues, Recoll 1.13 does not compile with Xapian
|
|
1.2. You can apply this <a href="files/xapian12.patch">small
|
|
patch</a> to fix the problem. With the patch applied, Recoll
|
|
works just fine with the latest and greatest Xapian.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>X11 development files.</li>
|
|
<li>zlib development files.</p>
|
|
<li><p>Qt development files
|
|
You can build with Qt 3.3 or Qt 4. Recoll will
|
|
automatically be configured to build with Qt 4 if the version
|
|
of qmake found in $PATH:$QTDIR/bin is for Qt 4 (you can/should also
|
|
set the QMAKE variable to explicitely choose the
|
|
desired version, like <tt>QMAKE=qmake-qt4</tt>).</p>
|
|
<p>There seems to be a few issues in Qt 4.4.0 (2008-08-23),
|
|
resulting in problems when displaying the Recoll result
|
|
list. <br> Qt 4.3, 4.4.x,4.5 and 4.6 seem to work fine.</p></li>
|
|
</ul>

<h3>KDE kicker applet:</h3>
|
|
<p>the applet can start a Recoll search
|
|
from the KDE toolbar. It is in a separate source file.
|
|
<a href="recoll_applet-1.10.0.tgz">recoll_applet-1.10.0.tgz</a>.
|
|
This is a very slightly modified version of the
|
|
<a href="http://demandiseineseite.gmxhome.de/find/">
|
|
find_applet</a>. It will work with any recoll version after 1.10.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Source repository:</h3>
|
|
<p>The <span class="application">Recoll</span> source repository is
|
|
hosted on
|
|
<a href="http://bitbucket.org/medoc/recoll/overview">bitbucket.org</a>.
|
|
The trunk is usually a bit on the bleeding edge, but there is
|
|
always a maintenance branch for the current production version.</p>

<h2><a name="rpms">Packages</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Packages or ports for Recoll are available in the standard
|
|
repositories for many distributions.</p>
|
|
<p>However they are often a bit older or built with older Xapian
|
|
releases. Here follow a number of updated packages and
|
|
instructions for a number of distributions.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Ubuntu</h3>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>There are Personal Package Archives on launchpad.net for
|
|
<a href="http://www.launchpad.net/~xapian-backports/+archive/ppa">
|
|
Xapian</a>,
|
|
<a href="http://www.launchpad.net/~recoll-backports/+archive/ppa">
|
|
Recoll and kio-recoll</a>. These were built from the latest versions,
|
|
for a set of Ubuntu series. You just need to add the
|
|
PPAs to your system software sources (the instructions are on
|
|
the PPA page or
|
|
<a href="https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/InstallingSoftware">
|
|
here</a>), and you can then use the normal package
|
|
manager to install or update Recoll and Xapian. To avoid
|
|
messages about signature errors, if not done at the previous step,
|
|
you may have to explicitely import the
|
|
Recoll and Xapian public keys (as root): <pre><tt>
|
|
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 9DA85604
|
|
gpg --export --armor 9DA85604 | sudo apt-key add -
|
|
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv A0735AD0
|
|
gpg --export --armor A0735AD0 | sudo apt-key add -
|
|
</tt></pre>
|
|
For Jaunty and newer releases, the procedure has been
|
|
simplified, and the 2 following commands perform the whole
|
|
procedure:
|
|
<pre><tt>
|
|
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xapian-backports/ppa
|
|
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:recoll-backports/ppa
|
|
</tt></pre>

<h3>RPMS</h3> <p><i>Except if specified otherwise, the
|
|
executables inside the binary rpms which follow have a
|
|
static link to Xapian (1.0.16-18), there is no real dependency
|
|
except Qt 3 or Qt 4.<br>
|
|
Some Fedora and Mandriva packages unfortunately think that they
|
|
depend on exiftool (which is needed by the little used jpeg
|
|
info filter), due to excessive rpmbuild cleverness.
|
|
<br>You need to install the Xapian, Qt, and zlib development
|
|
packages if you want use the source rpms.</i></p>

<h3>FreeBSD</h3>

<blockquote>
|
|
<p>The FreeBSD ports track the Recoll releases quite
|
|
closely, so there is actually little point in using the

following. Only for the <i>really</i> impatient:</p>
|
|
<p><b>FreeBSD 7.2 i386 Qt 4.6.1</b>:

|
|
</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Solaris</h3>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>Note to Solaris users: you need to perform the initial
|
|
indexing pass with "recollindex", not the recoll GUI indexing
|
|
thread. See <a href="BUGS.html">errata</a>.
|
|
|
|
<p><b>Solaris 8 SPARC</b>:
|
|
<a href="sunos/recoll-1.13.04-SunOS-5.8.tgz">
|
|
recoll-1.13.04-SunOS-5.8.tgz</a>. </p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Recoll also builds and runs on Solaris 10, but, given the
|
|
situation (2008) of open source packages for Solaris (very old
|
|
Qt on the Companion CD, inconsistent versions of the compiler and
|
|
non-threaded version of Qt on sunfreeware), I've come to the
|
|
temporary conclusion that you are better off building than
|
|
trying to install packages. The approach I tried in 2008 and
|
|
which worked was to:
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Install gcc 3.4.6 and gnu make from the sunfreeware
|
|
packages (go to /usr/local). I guess that the gcc in
|
|
/usr/sfw should be ok too here.</li>
|
|
<li>Compile xapian-core and install it (with prefix /usr/local).</li>
|
|
<li>Configure and install Qt. The following config worked for me,
|
|
with Qt 3.3.8:
|
|
<pre><tt>
|
|
./configure -platform solaris-g++ -prefix /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-3.3.8/ -thread
|
|
</tt></pre>
|
|
Then make. Weirdly, I had to add the Qt build lib/
|
|
directory to LD_LIBRARY_PATH at some point during the
|
|
build).
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Set QTDIR=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-3.3.8 and
|
|
QMAKESPEC=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-3.3.8/mkspecs/solaris-g++
|
|
and add $QTDIR/bin to the PATH then configure, make and
|
|
install Recoll</li>
|
|
<li>Don't forget to use <tt>recollindex</tt> for the first index
|
|
build, <tt>recoll</tt> does not work for this (exception handling
|
|
mystery probably).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</p>

<p>Obviously, there are other ways to do it (use CC, install
|
|
some place else ... ), but I tried this one.</p>

<p>There are ports for both xapian-core
|
|
and recoll in the standard tree, you may just need to update
|
|
your ports (cvsup, portsnap), or you can get the ports from
|
|
the FreeBSD site.

<h2><a name="translations">Translations</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Most of the translations for 1.13 are incomplete. The source
|
|
translation files are included in the source release. If your
|
|
language has some english messages left and you want to take a
|
|
shot at fixing the problem, you can send the results to
|
|
<a href="mailto:jfd@recoll.org">me</a> and
|
|
earn my gratefulness (and your less multilingual
|
|
compatriot's)...</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can use the <em>.ts</em> file to alter the translations if you
|
|
wish (use Qt's <em>linguist</em> tool to edit the source file,
|
|
then <em>lrelease</em> to produce the <em>.qm</em> file.).
|
|
The <literal>.qm</literal> file should be copied to
|
|
<span class="filename">/usr/[local/]share/recoll/translations</span>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><a href="translations/recoll_xx.ts">recoll_xx.ts</a> is a blank
|
|
Recoll 1.13 message file, handy to work on a new translation.</p>
