<h2><a>General information</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The current version is 1.18.1. <a href="release-1.18.html">
|
|
Release notes</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The download page for Recoll 1.17 is
|
|
<a href="download-1.17.html">still available</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Recoll <a href="usermanual/rcl.install.html">
|
|
Installation / building manual</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The indexing filters used for some document types may need
|
|
external packages not installed on your system by default, and
|
|
not installed automatically with Recoll: <a
|
|
href="features.html#doctypes"> take a look at the list</a> and
|
|
decide what you need to
|
|
install. Also <a href="filters/filters.html">new or updated
|
|
filters</a> sometimes become available after a release. As a
|
|
rule, all filters are compatible with all Recoll
|
|
versions. Any compatibility problem will be explicitely
|
|
mentionned.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Recoll term explorer tool in phonetic mode (marginally
|
|
useful and optional) uses the <b>aspell</b> package, version
|
|
0.60 (utf-8 support) or newer.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you find problems with this page, the package or its
|
|
installation, <em>please</em> <a href="mailto:jfd@recoll.org">
|
|
report them</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h4>What do the release numbers mean?</h4>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Recoll releases are numbered X.Y.Z. The X
|
|
would only change for really major modifications like a big
|
|
change in the index format, and possibly won't ever reach
|
|
2.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Y is for functional modifications. These may bring bugs, so
|
|
if you don't need the new features, you may want to wait a little,
|
|
and especially skip the first release (X.Y.0), at least for a few
|
|
weeks.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Z changes for <a href="BUGS.html">bug fixes</a> only,
|
|
and moving from X.Y.Z to X.Y.Z+u should in general involve
|
|
little risk of regression. But, <em>any</em> change can bring
|
|
problems, if you are not affected by the corrected bugs (check
|
|
the <a href="release-1.18.html">release file</a>), there is
|
|
probably no necessity to upgrade anyway.</p>

<h3>Current release distribution: 1.18.1:</h3>

<h3>Snapshot</h3>
|
|
<p>I sometimes release a source tarfile when I consider that the
|
|
current development version is stable enough. The current
|
|
snapshot contains commits up to 2240 (see
|
|
<a href="https://bitbucket.org/medoc/recoll/changesets">the
|
|
changelog</a>, and a synthetic abstract in the
|
|
current <a href="release-1.16.html">1.16 release notes</a>).

|
<h3>Prerequisites for building from source:</h3>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>C++ compiler. Its absence sometimes manifests itself by
|
|
strange messages about iconv_open (fixed after 1.13.04).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>Xapian core development libraries. Most Linux distributions
|
|
carry them in their package repository. Or you will find source and
|
|
binary packages on the
|
|
<a href="http://www.xapian.org/download.php">
|
|
Xapian download page</a>. <br />
|
|
Recoll should still work with Xapian 1.0, but it is highly
|
|
recommended to use a Xapian 1.2 version.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><em>Note on building Xapian for older CPUs:</em> The
|
|
build configurations for Xapian releases 1.0.21 and
|
|
1.2.1 or newer enable the use of SSE2 floating point
|
|
instructions. These instructions are not available in CPUs
|
|
older than Intel Pentium 4 or AMD Athlon 64. When
|
|
building for such a CPU, you need to add the --disable-sse
|
|
flag to the Xapian library configure command. If this is
|
|
not done, the problem signals itself by "Illegal
|
|
instruction" crashes (SIGILL) in recollindex and recoll.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>X11 development files.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>zlib development files.</p>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>Qt development files: Qt 4.4 or newer. The Recoll GUI
|
|
will not build with Qt releases older than 4.4.</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li><p>Qt webkit development: Qt WebKit is quite often
|
|
distributed apart from the main Qt lib. It is possible to
|
|
configure Recoll not to use Qt WebKit (see
|
|
configure --help).</p></li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Python development package: you can avoid needing this by
|
|
configuring with --disable-python-module.</li>

<h3>Source repository:</h3>
|
|
<p>The <span class="application">Recoll</span> source repository is
|
|
hosted on
|
|
<a href="http://bitbucket.org/medoc/recoll/overview">bitbucket.org</a>.
|
|
The trunk is usually a bit on the bleeding edge, but there is
|
|
always a maintenance branch for the current production version.</p>
|
|
|

<h2><a name="packages">Packages</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Packages or ports for Recoll are available in the standard
|
|
repositories for many distributions.</p>
|
|
<p>However they are often a bit older or built with older Xapian
|
|
releases. Here follow a number of updated packages and
|
|
instructions for a number of distributions.</p>
|
|
<p>All binary packages on this page need a Qt 4 (4.4 at least) runtime
|
|
environment. To make things easier, on systems where Xapian is
|
|
not available from the standard package repositories, the
|
|
Recoll package will have a static link to Xapian so that you
|
|
do not need to build/install it separately.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="debian">Debian</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The Debian Recoll packages are usually fairly up to date (at
|
|
least in testing), just use the appropriate Debian repository.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="ubuntu">Ubuntu</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are Personal Package Archives on launchpad.net for
|
|
<a href="https://launchpad.net/~recoll-backports/+archive/recoll-1.15-on">
|
|
Recoll, kio-recoll and recoll-lens</a>. These were built from the
|
|
latest versions, for a set of Ubuntu series. starting at
|
|
Lucid. The installation is very simple:
|
|
<pre><tt>
|
|
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:recoll-backports/recoll-1.15-on
|
|
sudo apt-get update
|
|
sudo apt-get install recoll
|
|
</tt></pre>
|
|
<p>Source code for the lens (also included in the main
|
|
recoll tar file):<br>
|
|
For 1.18 installations: <a href="recoll-lens-1.18.1.2997.tar.gz">
|
|
recoll-lens-1.18.1.2997.tar.gz</a><br>
|
|
For 1.17: <a href="recoll-lens-1.17.2.2697.tar.gz">
|
|
recoll-lens-1.17.2.2697.tar.gz</a></p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The packages in the standard repository and on the PPA
|
|
are a bit different in the sense that the Python extension
|
|
is included in the PPA package, but it's a separate
|
|
package in the standard repository. This can give rise to
|
|
errors about overwriting the Python module when switching
|
|
between versions. Typically, the error message would be
|
|
like the following:</p>
|
|
<pre><tt>
|
|
ErrorMessage: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/recoll.so', which is also in package recoll 1.18.1-1~ppa1~quantal1</tt></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>If this happens, you just need to delete
|
|
the previous package(s) before installing the other one(s)
|
|
instead of performing an upgrade.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3><a name="mint">Linux Mint</a></h3>
|
|
<p>The Ubuntu PPA works perfectly for Mint 13 (and probably
|
|
other releases too). Just follow the instructions for Ubuntu.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>RPMS</h3>
|
|
<p>You'll need to install the Xapian, Qt, Qt-Webkit and zlib
|
|
development packages if you want use the source rpms.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Fedora</h3>
|
|
<p>Recoll is present in the standard Fedora package
|
|
repositories starting from F-12. The new versions are tracked quite
|
|
closely, so I don't build the rpms any more (email me if you need
|
|
one).</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3>OpenSUSE</h3>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>Recoll is in the KDE:Extra repository
|
|
|
|
<!--
|
|
I now use the OpenSUSE build service to create Recoll OpenSUSE packages.
|
|
-->
|
|
You just need to add the repository to your
|
|
software sources (Yast2->software->Software repositories).<br>
|
|
<a href="http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Extra/">
|
|
Repository list (supported Suse versions)</a>. After adding the
|
|
appropriate repository to your software sources, you will be
|
|
able to install recoll and kio_recoll from the software
|
|
management interface. The Xapian dependancy will also be
|
|
satisfied from the build service repository. Some of the older
|
|
repositories do not build antiword, just tell the software manager
|
|
to "break" recoll by installing anyway, and get antiword
|
|
somewhere else.</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Mageia</h3>
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>Mageia version 2:
|
|
<a href="mageia2/recoll-1.18.1-1.mga2.i586.rpm">
|
|
mageia2/recoll-1.18.1-1.mga2.i586.rpm,
|
|
<a href="mageia2/recoll-debug-1.18.1-1.mga2.i586.rpm">
|
|
recoll-debug-1.18.1-1.mga2.i586.rpm</a>. <br>
|
|
Source:
|
|
<a href="mageia2/recoll-1.18.1-1.mga2.src.rpm">
|
|
recoll-1.18.1-1.mga2.src.rpm</a>
|
|
</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a name="ports">Ports</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<h3>Mac port</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>It seems that Recoll will sometimes find data that Spotlight
|
|
misses (especially inside pdfs apparently, which is probably
|
|
more to the credit of poppler than recoll itself).</p>
|
|
<p>Recoll is in MacPorts and really easy to install:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li><a href="https://trac.macports.org/wiki/InstallingMacPorts">
|
|
Install MacPorts</a>.</li>
|
|
<li>Type "sudo port install recoll"</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
<p>Recoll is then available from the command line and as an icon in
|
|
the usual MacPorts applications place.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Building on Solaris</h2>
|
|
<p>I did not test building the GUI on Solaris for this version. You
|
|
will need at least Qt 4.4. The old hints
|
|
in <a href="download-1.14.html">the previous page</a> may
|
|
still be valid.</p>
|
|
<p>Someone did test the indexer and Python module build, they
|
|
do work, with a few minor glitches. Be sure to use
|
|
GNU <b>make</b> and <b>install</b>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a name="translations">Translations</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Most of the translations for 1.18 are incomplete
|
|
The source translation files are included in the source
|
|
release. If your language has some english messages left and
|
|
you want to take a shot at fixing the problem, you can send
|
|
the results to <a href="mailto:jfd@recoll.org">me</a> and earn
|
|
my gratefulness (and your less multilingual
|
|
compatriot's)...</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can use the <em>.ts</em> file to alter the translations if you
|
|
wish (use Qt's <em>linguist</em> tool to edit the source file,
|
|
then <em>lrelease</em> to produce the <em>.qm</em> file.).
|
|
The <literal>.qm</literal> file should be copied to
|
|
<span class="filename">/usr/[local/]share/recoll/translations</span>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><a href="translations/recoll_xx.ts">recoll_xx.ts</a> is a blank
