      <p><em>Installing over an older version</em>: version 1.13/14 indexes are
54
  mostly compatible with 1.11, but some new, relatively minor,
55
  features (ie: duplicates collapsing) depend on a full index
56
  rebuild. The 1.14 date search feature does <i>not</i> need an
57
  index rebuild, the data was already in the index.
58
59
  <br />If installing over 1.10 or older, you need a full
60
  rebuild. The best way to do this is to just delete the old
61
  <span class="filename">.recoll/xapiandb</span> directory,
62
  especially if the index was created by an older version.
63
  (ie: <tt>rm&nbsp;-rf&nbsp;~/.recoll/xapiandb/</tt>).  On very
64
  old indexes, <tt>recollindex&nbsp;-z</tt> may sometimes end
65
  with a <em>backend doesn't implement metadata</em> error,
66
  which is wasteful because you then need to delete xapiandb and
67
  run the indexing again.</p>
