<li> When Recoll is built with qt 4.4.0, the icons in the
result list are all displayed at the top of the page and
garbled. This appears to be a qt bug, fixed in 4.4.1. Use
either qt 4.3.x or 4.4.1
either qt 4.3.x or 4.4.1</li>
<li> If the user-chosen result list entry format results in
several paragraphs (in the qt textedit sense), right clicks
will only work inside the first one for each entry.
<li>The "Copy file name" and "Copy URL" entries of the
right-click menus only copy the data to the X11 primary
selection (use middle-button click to paste). This is
probably a mistake, the data should be copied to the
clipboard too (permitting the use of the "Paste" edit menu
entry or Ctrl+V in the target).

<li> When a mime type has an external viewer defined, but the
actual file is compressed (ie: xxx.txt.gz), recoll will try
to start the external viewer on the compressed file, which
will not work in most cases.
will not work in most cases.</li>
<li> NEAR crashes: 1.6 has added NEAR searches. Unlike what
recoll did with PHRASES, stemming expansion is performed on
terms inside NEAR clauses (except if prevented by a
capitalized entry of course). There is a bug in Xapian (all
versions as far as I know), where NEAR does not support
multiple OR subclauses, as would result from a multiple
expansion. This manifests itself by a 'not implemented'
Xapian exception. Workarounds:
<li>NEAR expansion errors: recoll performs stemming expansion
inside NEAR clauses (except if prevented by a capitalized
entry). Because of a Xapian bug (at least up to 1.0.10),
NEAR does not support multiple OR subclauses. This manifests
itself by a 'not implemented' Xapian exception or an
explicit error message. Workarounds:
<ul>
<li>Prevent expansion of NEAR terms (possibly except one) by
capitalizing them.
<li>Or apply the following patch to xapian, inside the
"api/" directory:
http://www.recoll.org/xapian/xapNearDistrib-1.0.patch
or fetch the already patched source:

<li> Under Solaris, it is necessary to perform initial indexing with the
recollindex program (the recoll index thread doesn't work for creating
the database). Don't know the reason. Only idea I have is problem with
exception handling (recoll catches an exception while trying the
yet inexistant db).</li>
<li>The default filter for files in microsoft word format
(application/msword, .doc), antiword, has trouble with some
relatively rare files with a very small text, resulting in the
following error message:
<blockquote>
I'm afraid the text stream of this file is too small to
handle.
</blockquote>
Only small files produced by Microsoft Word on a Mac, or by
OpenOffice will trigger this message. As a workaround, install
wvWare and modify mimeconf to use the rcldoc filter, which
will use vwWare if it is available. This will result in
slower indexing for doc files.</li>

<li>Implemented Recoll KIO slave to allow searching directly
from KDE applications. This does not affect the main
application and is not enabled by default (go to the
kde/kio/recoll source directory for build
instructions). </li>
<li>Compute md5 checksums for all documents and optionally
collapse duplicate entries inside the result list. Needs a
full reindex to become effective for older documents already
in the index. The option for collapsing or not is in the
<i>Query Configuration</i>.</li>
<li>Words glued by an underscore character like
<i>compound_word</i> are now split during indexing, and
will be found when queried either as themselves or in a
search for the components.</li>
<li>Add size limit over which no attempt will be made to
uncompress/identify/index compressed files. Not active by
default, to be set in the <i>Indexing Configuration</i>.</li>
<li>Fixed possibly harmful bug in strerror_r usage (GNU
case).</li>
<li>Added support for fetching field values from extended file
attributes.</li>
<li>Added an entry to the result list right click menu to
save the document to a file. This is only enabled for
documents contained inside another file (ie, messages inside
an mbox folder or attachments), and is especially useful for
extracting an attachment with no associated external
editor.</li>
<li>Added a right click menu to the preview window, with an
entry to toggle between viewing the main text or all the
metadata for the document. This is most useful in the case
where the search match actually occurred in a field not
visible in the main text (ie: author or HTML title).</li>
