Hi Rastko, the description isn't really correct now as NUTCH_HOME is supposed to point to the runtime
- if the binary package is used: this is the base folder of the package, eg. apache-nutch-1.18/ - if Nutch is built from the source, you usually point NUTCH_HOME to runtime/local/ - the directory tree below this folder looks pretty much the same as the binary package Older versions of Nutch hadn't this separation of source and runtime. > I use nutch by just unzipping apache-nutch-1.17-bin.tar.gz)? If you want to build your own plugin, I'd recommend to start using the Nutch source package, or even the current master by cloning the Nutch git repository. As always for a community project: feel free to improve the tutorial, obviously it might be out of date.
