There is an unofficial ubuntu package for download on the website.

However it is very difficult to guess the encoding of text files, especially when they came from different systems. Current only way to do that is to either manually or with some script convert the files to utf-8 and than import them in zim. I don't believe this is specific for search, trying to open those pages would give the exact same error. -- Jaap -- search doesn't work after upgrade to lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/584198 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
