Please report its speed etc. And yes, .deb is reduced to half of size than earlier ;) Speed really should hardly change, unless you count startup speed (and even then, it will load faster on a system already using libxapian). Thanks again ;-) ! Vincent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Although, it might be better to tag it wontfix if you don't intent to use shared libraries - so no one bothers you again (or at least having read all of this).

If there is any good reason, I will close the bug, else we will need solution. ok? Perfect.

Hi Vincent, Thanks for using recoll. Hope we can do 'Total Recall' someday ;) I will talk to upstream about this. I think there must be good reason to use it.
