<h2><a>General information and release notes</a></h2>
<p><em>Installing over an older version</em>: version 1.13/14 indexes are
mostly compatible with 1.11, but some new, relatively minor,
features (ie: duplicates collapsing) depend on a full index
rebuild. The 1.14 date search feature does <i>not</i> need an
index rebuild, the data was already in the index.
<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&nbsp;-rf&nbsp;~/.recoll/xapiandb/</tt>). On very
old indexes, <tt>recollindex&nbsp;-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>These are just prebuilt trees (without the source files).
The executables were built with xapian 1.0.8 (patched for the
NEAR bug) and libiconv 1.9.2 (where relevant) as static
libraries. They depend on miscellaneous versions of Qt. For
Xapian is statically linked. They still depend on Qt. For
