== Note for updating
Recoll versions 1.23.0-9c5e32-20161216 and 1.23.0-2bfd80-20161115 had been
switched to using Xapian 1.4 which has a new and different index
format. Due to issues in Xapian 1.4, I have switched back to using Xapian
1.2 as of Recoll 1.23.0-20170107-78b8ad.
This simply means that, if your index was created by one of the above
versions, it will have to be recreated from scratch after installing the
current Recoll version. I advise explicitely deleting
$HOME/AppData/Local/Recoll/xapiandb, as this will avoid leaving around 1.4
files which would take space for nothing otherwise.
