<li>Cancelling a preview in the GUI will also cancel the indexing
thread if it is running.</li>
<li>Using the GUI preview while the indexing thread is running
will sometimes crash the GUI or provoke other
strangeness. This happens much more rarely than in 1.15.7,
but still occurs. Workaround if this happens too frequently:
use the standalone recollindex program instead of the GUI
thread.</li>
<li>Real time indexer: uncontrolled concurrent access to
the global configuration can cause a startup crash (mostly of
big file trees because of timing issues).</li>
<li>Sorting by document and file size in the result table does
not work.</li>
<li>Email messages for which there would be an error indexing
an attachment would not be indexed at all.</li>
<li>Text files bigger than 2 GB can not be indexed.</li>
<li>After an upgrade, the recoll GUI sometimes crashes on
startup. This is fixed by removing (back it up just in case)
~/.config/Recoll.org/recoll.conf, the QSettings storage for
recoll.</li>
<li>Compressed man pages could not be previewed.</li>
<li>Performing a full index with release 1.11 or newer, over a
version created with a much older recoll release may
sometimes end with an error saying "backend doesn't
implement metadata". If this happens, you need to delete
the index directory (typically <em>~/.recoll/xapiandb/</em>)
and restart indexing. For big indexes, to avoid losing
time, removing the directory preventively may be preferable .</li>
<li>Under Solaris, it is necessary to perform the initial
indexing with the recollindex program. For some unknown reason,
the recoll index thread does not work for creating the database.
