<p>1.8.2: <a href="recoll-1.8.2.tar.gz">recoll-1.8.2.tar.gz</a>
See the <a href="BUGS.txt">known bugs and issues</a> and
<a href="CHANGES.txt">changes</a>.
1.8.2 was released purely for fixing a small issue of
compatibility with xapian 1.0.0 and small config/install
glitches. There is no functional reason to upgrade from
1.8.1, (or update packages).</p>
<p>1.10.0: <a href="recoll-1.10.0.tar.gz">recoll-1.10.0.tar.gz</a>
See the <a href="BUGS.txt">known bugs and issues</a> and
<a href="CHANGES.txt">changes</a>.</p>
<p>Recoll 1.8.2 is the first release that will let you take
advantage of the new Xapian 1.0, the main user-visible change
of which is the new default index format. In order to take
advantage of the new format (which is not mandatory) Recoll
users updating from an older release need to delete their old
index. <a href="xapUpg100.html">More details</a>.</p>
<p>Recoll 1.10.0 will work with Xapian versions 0.9.x or 1.0.x but
1.0 is preferred. In order to take advantage of the new index
format in Xapian 1.0, Recoll users updating from 1.8 or older,
or who have skipped this step for 1.9 need to delete their old index.
<a href="xapUpg100.html">More details</a>.
This is not mandatory, and the old index format will continue
working just as before (but it is slower, and has a few bugs
fixed in 1.0).<em>You don't need to do this if you did it
for Recoll 1.9</em></p>
<p>If updating from 1.8 or older, and you had turned off the
mime type icons inside the result lists in your current Recoll
version, you need to do a small manual adjustment in 1.9/1.10
to achieve the same effect. See the first entry in
the <a href="CHANGES.txt">changes</a> list.</p>

<p>Recoll also builds and runs on Solaris 10, but, given the
situation 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 recently tried 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>
./configure -platform solaris-g++ -prefix /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-3.3.8/ -thread
</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 recollindex for the first index
build, recoll 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>
