Version 1.11 has relatively <a href="CHANGES.html">extensive
changes</a> (<a href="pics/recoll0.png">pic</a>), and needs an
index reset after installing over an 1.10 or older
version. For an existing installation you can use option -z to
the command line indexer: <tt>recollindex&nbsp;-z</tt>, or
just delete the old index directory
(ie: <tt>rm&nbsp;-rf&nbsp;~/.recoll/xapiandb/</tt>). The
latter option may be safer with old indexes. If the first
1.11 indexing ends with an error like <em>backend doesn't
implement metadata</em>, you certainly need to do it.</p>
<p>The download page for Recoll 1.10 is
still <a href="download-1.10.html">still available</a>.</p>
<p>In order to build Recoll from source, you will need a
xapian-core installation. You will find
source and binary packages on the
<a href="http://www.xapian.org/download.php">Xapian download
page</a>. Recoll should build with any 0.9.x or 1.0.x
Xapian version. 1.0.x is preferred.</p>
<p>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 $QTDIR/bin:$PATH is for Qt 4 (or if $QMAKE
is set to such a version).</p>
<p>There seems to be a few problems in Qt 4.4.0 (2008-08-23),
resulting in problems in displaying the Recoll result list. I
suggest avoiding this release. Qt 4.3.x and
