I tried to combined it, the "autoreconf" errors are solved
Now, when I type "make install", the lib is not pushed into dovecot
folder, but somewhere in /usr/local/...
How to adjust this to have it arriving in the proper folder ?

You copied your Makefile.am there. Stephan made you a working version, can you try that?

Oh, right, a distribution tarball doesn't include some of the necessary files for your repository like autogen.sh and .gitignore. The attached tarball includes all those and is ready for `git init`. The previous tarball was made with `make distcheck` from this one.

is done.
Unfortunately what is not done is all the other work involved, such as fixing
all the inevitable bugs it has and maintaining it. We do not want, at this
moment, take up maintaining and developing yet another FTS plugin as we have
plenty of things to do already.
I invite you to setup your own repository and provide this plugin from there,
being the maintainer of this plugin. We can add a link to your plugin on our
FTS page so people can also find it.
There are other plugins like this, e.g. https://github.com/st3fan/dovecot-xaps-plugin
I turned the code you provided into a separate plugin package. The distribution tarball is attached.
Notable changes:
- Added example copyright headers and COPYING and AUTHORS files. You should
modify those to your preference.
- Added README and INSTALL files (in markdown using Pandoc). Those need to be
amended with details.
- Amended the plugin code to display a debug message with the plugin name and
version upon plugin load.
I advise you to turn this into a git repository and continue from there.
I do not recommend releasing this plugin with the -fpermissive flag and the
resulting warning as it is now. But I'm assuming this is still a work in
progress, so that is OK.
Regards,
Stephan.

The only point here of this fts-xapian is to get rid of solr (because it
is just a nightmare to setup) and squat (because it is considere
obsolete).
I already sent the changed in configure.ac, makefile.am, etc.. in order
to include it in the dovecot, and it compiles properly
The only remaining point is to push it in hte git (yes, everything is
already done)

Hi
Please find attached the beta release of FTS Xapian, with the objective
to replace fts_squat that is being deprecated.
Configuration is exactly the same as for fts_squat:
plugin {
plugin = fts fts_xapian (...)
fts = xapian
fts_autoindex = yes
fts_enforced = yes
fts_xapian = partial=2 full=20
This is installed on my production server (>120Gb of mailboxes), and I
will observe it during the coming days.
I will definitely appreciate that this is added in the core git of
docevot, in order to have a versionning of it, to remove squat and let
basic users able to avoid Solr alternative as much as possible.
Thanks
JM Hi!
I still recommend you setup a, say, github repository for your plugin. We are
not able to currently include your work in dovecot core as it is more work than
just pushing the code into the repo. Maybe it can be included in the future.
If you want, I can help you in setting up the required configuration scripts
and such to make it possible to compile it as plugin.
Then anyone can download it and install it for their dovecot, even if dovecot
itself has been installed from packages, and also makes it possible for package
maintainers to consider including it in distributions.
Aki
