Known bugs in current version and older versions:
|
|
|
2 |
|
|
|
3 |
1.4.2
|
|
|
4 |
- When a mime type has an external viewer defined, but the actual file is
|
|
|
5 |
compressed (ie: xxx.txt.gz), recoll will try to start the external viewer
|
|
|
6 |
on the compressed file, which will not work in most cases.
|
|
|
7 |
|
|
|
8 |
- There are problems which have been reported indexing big mailstores
|
|
|
9 |
(several hundreds of thousands of messages): resulting in a very big
|
|
|
10 |
database and even crashes during indexation.
|
|
|
11 |
|
|
|
12 |
1.3.3
|
|
|
13 |
|
|
|
14 |
- Several of the external filters did not handle path names with embedded
|
|
|
15 |
spaces (rcluncomp rclsoff rclps rclmedia rcldjvu). This is fixed in 1.4.
|
|
|
16 |
|
|
|
17 |
- If your QT installation is built with the QT_NO_STL flag, Recoll will not
|
|
|
18 |
compile. I have a patch for this (will be fixed in the next release),
|
|
|
19 |
contact me if you get the problem. Typical error message:
|
|
|
20 |
main.cpp:160: error: no match for 'operator+=' in 'msg += reason'
|
|
|
21 |
|
|
|
22 |
- The 'None of these words' field in the complex search does not work if
|
|
|
23 |
there are no other filled fields (it transforms into an ordinary
|
|
|
24 |
search). Workaround: enter very common term(s) in the 'any of these
|
|
|
25 |
words' field.
|
|
|
26 |
|
|
|
27 |
- Indexing cannot currently be conveniently and cleanly stopped when it's
|
|
|
28 |
started. You can kill the process, and keyboard interrupt might work, but
|
|
|
29 |
this may leave the database in a bad state. This is fixed in the upcoming
|
|
|
30 |
release, there is no current workaround.
|
|
|
31 |
|
|
|
32 |
1.2.2
|
|
|
33 |
- The preview window is supposed to scroll after loading the document so
|
|
|
34 |
that the first search term is visible. This does not work in many cases.
|
|
|
35 |
- The result list title is not shown for sorted lists
|
|
|
36 |
|
|
|
37 |
Notes on older versions:
|
|
|
38 |
- Trouble compiling on some linux systems (Gentoo and Slackware?). There
|
|
|
39 |
existed a quite common issue where the Recoll link will fail trying to
|
|
|
40 |
use a libstdc++.la file. This was due to a problem with the xapian-config
|
|
|
41 |
program. A workaround has been included in the configure script for
|
|
|
42 |
recoll 1.2.2, and the problem should not occur any more.
|
|
|
43 |
|
|
|
44 |
- Case-insensitive search should now work in most cases (used to not work
|
|
|
45 |
except for accented ascii).
|
|
|
46 |
|
|
|
47 |
- All directories and files with names beginning with a dot were ignored
|
|
|
48 |
by the skippedNames directive in the default recoll.conf file from
|
|
|
49 |
older versions (no indexation of mozilla or thunderbird email !). An
|
|
|
50 |
upgrade will not fix this (it will not modify an existing
|
|
|
51 |
configuration). You need to edit recoll.conf by hand and remove the .*
|
|
|
52 |
from skippedNames.
