+ <p>Notice for 1.16.0: the
+ <tt>recoll</tt> GUI program sometimes crashes when running a query
+ while the indexing thread is active. I can reproduce the problem
+ and I am working on a correction. Meanwhile, there are two possible
+ workarounds:<br>
+ <ul>
+ <li>(Recommended) Use the command
+ line <tt>recollindex</tt> program to perform indexing
+ (usually just type "recollindex" in a console, or see "man
+ recollindex").</li>
+ <li>Do not run queries in <tt>recoll</tt> while the indexing thread
+ is running (as indicated in the bottom status line).</li>
+ </ul>
+ If the workaround fails or you experience other kinds of
+ crashes with either <tt>recoll</tt> or <tt>recollindex</tt>, and
+ want to help, please follow the instructions on
