README for Debian
-----------------
1.26.6 update, loss of GUI preferences:
A change in 1.26.6, which was supposedly intended for Windows, has
unfortunately resulted in a change of name for the GUI preferences file under
Linux. This was previously named ~/.config/Recoll.org/recoll.conf, and it is
now ~/.config/Recoll.org/recoll.ini. In order to recover your preferences, and
supposing that you have nothing useful in the new file, please exit recoll,
then rename ~/.config/Recoll.org/recoll.conf to ~/.config/Recoll.org/recoll.ini

Starting with 1.27.3-2, recoll is split into 3 packages. recoll is metapackage
now and depends on GUI program, recollgui and commandline programs recollcmd.

Installing over an older version: 1.18 introduces significant index formats
changes to support optional character case and diacritics sensitivity, and it
will be advisable to reset the index in most cases. This will be best done by
destroying the index directory (rm -rf ~/.recoll/xapiandb).
If 1.18 is not configured for case and diacritics sensitivity, it is mostly
compatible with 1.17 indexes.

Installing over an older version: 1.16 is mostly compatible with 1.15 indexes,
except for a few differences for weird terms containing punctuation signs.
Perform a full index pass if installing over an older version. The simplest
way to do this is to quit all recoll programs and just delete the index
directory (rm -rf ~/.recoll/xapiandb), then start recoll or recollindex.
recollindex -z will do the same in most cases.
Also, using the anchored search feature requires a full reindex.
