<h2><a>General information</a></h2>
<p>The download page for Recoll 1.13 is
<a href="download-1.13.html">still available</a>.</p>
<p>Recoll <a href="usermanual/rcl.install.html">
Installation / building manual</a>.</p>
<p>Current <a href="release-1.14.4.html">release notes</a>.</p>
<p>The indexing filters for some document types may need
external packages not installed on your system by default, and
not installed automatically with Recoll:
<a href="usermanual/usermanual.html#RCL.INSTALL.EXTERNAL">
take a look at the list</a> and decide what you need to
install.</p>
<p>The Recoll term explorer tool in phonetic mode (marginally
useful and optional) uses the <b>aspell</b> package, version
0.60 (utf-8 support) or newer.</p>
<p>If you find problems with this page, the package or its
installation, <em>please</em>
<a href="mailto:jfd@recoll.org">
report them</a>.</p>
<h4>What do the release numbers mean?</h4>
<p>The Recoll releases are numbered X.Y.Z. The X
would only change for really major modifications like a big
change in the index format, and possibly won't ever reach
2.</p>
<p>Y is for functional modifications. These may bring bugs, so
if you don't need the new features, you may want to wait a little,
and especially skip the first release (X.Y.0), at least for a few
weeks.</p>
<p>Z changes for <a href="BUGS.html">bug fixes</a> only,
and moving from X.Y.Z to X.Y.Z+u should in general involve
little risk of regression. But, <em>any</em> change can bring
problems, if you are not affected by the corrected bugs (check
the <a href="CHANGES.html">changes file</a>), there is
probably no necessity to upgrade anyway.</p>
<h2><a name="filters">Updated filters</a></h2>
<p>New and updated filters are sometimes
<a href="filters/filters.html">available</a> before the next
Recoll release.</p>
<h2><a name="source">Source</a></h2>
<h3>Current release distribution: 1.14.4:</h3>
<!-- Attention: source packages must remain here, not in a
subdirectory, because of all the places they're referred from
(package watches( -->
<p><a href="recoll-1.14.4.tar.gz">recoll-1.14.4.tar.gz</a>.</p>
<h3>Prerequisites for building from source:</h3>
<ul>
<li>C++ compiler. Its absence sometimes manifests itself by
strange messages about iconv_open (fixed after 1.13.04).</li>
<li><p>Xapian core development libraries. Most Linux distributions
carry them in their package repository. Or you will find source and
binary packages on the
<a href="http://www.xapian.org/download.php">
Xapian download page</a>. <br /> Recoll 1.14 needs at least
xapian 1.0.12. It is compatible with all later Xapian
releases, including the 1.2.x series.</p> <p><em>Note on
building Xapian for older CPUs:</em> The
build configurations for Xapian releases 1.0.21 and
1.2.1 or newer enable the use of SSE2 floating point
instructions. These instructions are not available in CPUs
older than Intel Pentium&nbsp;4 or AMD Athlon&nbsp;64. When
building for such a CPU, you need to add the
--disable-sse flag to the Xapian library configure
command. If this is not done, the problem signals itself by
"Illegal instruction" crashes (SIGILL) in recollindex and recoll.
</p>
</li>
<li>X11 development files.</li>
<li>zlib development files.</p>
<li><p>Qt development files
You can build with Qt 3.3 or Qt 4. Recoll will
automatically be configured to build with Qt 4 if the version
of qmake found in $PATH:$QTDIR/bin is for Qt 4 (you can/should also
set the QMAKE variable to explicitely choose the
desired version, like <tt>QMAKE=qmake-qt4</tt>).</p>
<p>There seems to be a few issues in Qt 4.4.0 (2008-08-23),
resulting in problems when displaying the Recoll result
list. <br> Qt 4.3, 4.4.x,4.5 and 4.6 seem to work fine.</p></li>
</ul>
<h3>KDE kicker applet:</h3>
<p>the applet can start a Recoll search
from the KDE toolbar. It is in a separate source file.
<a href="recoll_applet-1.10.0.tgz">recoll_applet-1.10.0.tgz</a>.
This is a very slightly modified version of the
<a href="http://demandiseineseite.gmxhome.de/find/">
find_applet</a>. It will work with any recoll version after 1.10.</p>
<h3>Source repository:</h3>
<p>The <span class="application">Recoll</span> source repository is
hosted on
<a href="http://bitbucket.org/medoc/recoll/overview">bitbucket.org</a>.
The trunk is usually a bit on the bleeding edge, but there is
always a maintenance branch for the current production version.</p>
<h3>Older recoll releases:</h3>

</p>
<h2><a name="rpms">Packages</a></h2>
<p>Packages or ports for Recoll are available in the standard
repositories for many distributions.</p>
<p>However they are often a bit older or built with older Xapian
releases. Here follow a number of updated packages and
instructions for a number of distributions.</p>
<p>Most binary packages on this page need a Qt 4 runtime
environment (Qt 3.x is specified for a few). To make things easier,
on systems where Xapian is not available from the standard package
repositories, the Recoll package will have a static link to Xapian
so that you do not need to build/install it separately.</p>
<h3>Ubuntu</h3>
<blockquote>
<p>There are Personal Package Archives on launchpad.net for
<a href="http://www.launchpad.net/~xapian-backports/+archive/ppa">
Xapian</a>,
<a href="http://www.launchpad.net/~recoll-backports/+archive/ppa">
Recoll and kio-recoll</a>. These were built from the latest versions,
for a set of Ubuntu series. You just need to add the
PPAs to your system software sources (the instructions are on
the PPA page or
<a href="https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/InstallingSoftware">
here</a>), and you can then use the normal package
manager to install or update Recoll and Xapian. To avoid
messages about signature errors, if not done at the previous step,
you may have to explicitely import the
Recoll and Xapian public keys: <pre><tt>
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv 9DA85604
gpg --export --armor 9DA85604 | sudo apt-key add -
gpg --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv A0735AD0
gpg --export --armor A0735AD0 | sudo apt-key add -
</tt></pre>
For Jaunty and newer releases, the procedure has been
simplified, and the 2 following commands perform the whole
procedure:
<pre><tt>
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xapian-backports/ppa
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:recoll-backports/ppa
</tt></pre>
</p>
</blockquote>
<h3>RPMS</h3> <p><i>Except if specified otherwise, the
executables inside the binary rpms which follow have a
static link to Xapian (1.0.16-21), there is no real dependency
except Qt 3 or Qt 4.<br>
Some Fedora and Mandriva packages unfortunately think that they
depend on exiftool (which is needed by the little used jpeg
info filter), due to excessive rpmbuild cleverness.
<br>You'll need to install the Xapian, Qt, and zlib development
packages if you want use the source rpms.</i></p>
<h3>Fedora</h3>
<p>Recoll is present in the standard Fedora package
repositories starting from F-12.</p>
<blockquote>

<p>If you build from source on OpenSUSE 11, note that the default
qt4 version on some systems is 4.4.0 which will badly
display the the result list icons. Use qt3 or install a
newer version of qt4.</p>

<h2><a name="otherbinary">Binary bundles</a></h2>
<p>These are just prebuilt trees (without the source files).
Xapian is statically linked. They still depend on Qt. For
Solaris, you should be able to find a Qt package on
<a href="http://www.sunfreeware.com/">sunfreeware</a>.</p>
<p><a href="usermanual/rcl.install.html">Installation
instructions here</a>.</p>
<h3>FreeBSD</h3>
<blockquote>
<p>The FreeBSD ports track the Recoll releases quite
closely, so there is actually little point in using the
following (except that the port is currently (10-2010) broken).</p>
<p><b>FreeBSD 7.3 i386 Qt 4.6.1. Statically linked to
Xapian 1.2.3 with --disable-sse</b>:
<a href="freebsd/recoll-1.14.2-FreeBSD-7.3-STABLE.tgz">
recoll-1.14.2-FreeBSD-7.3-STABLE.tgz</a>
</p>
</blockquote>
<h3>Solaris</h3>
<blockquote>
<p>Note to Solaris users: you need to perform the initial
indexing pass with "recollindex", not the recoll GUI indexing
thread. See <a href="BUGS.html">errata</a>.
<p><b>Solaris 8 SPARC</b>:
<a href="sunos/recoll-1.13.04-SunOS-5.8.tgz">
recoll-1.14.2-SunOS-5.8.tgz</a>. </p>
<p>Recoll also builds and runs on Solaris 10, but, given the
situation (2008) of open source packages for Solaris (very old
Qt on the Companion CD, inconsistent versions of the compiler and
non-threaded version of Qt on sunfreeware), I've come to the
temporary conclusion that you are better off building than
trying to install packages. The approach I tried in 2008 and
which worked was to:
<ul>
<li>Install gcc 3.4.6 and gnu make from the sunfreeware
packages (go to /usr/local). I guess that the gcc in
/usr/sfw should be ok too here.</li>
<li>Compile xapian-core and install it (with prefix /usr/local).</li>
<li>Configure and install Qt. The following config worked for me,
with Qt 3.3.8:
<pre><tt>
./configure -platform solaris-g++ -prefix /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-3.3.8/ -thread
</tt></pre>
Then make. Weirdly, I had to add the Qt build lib/
directory to LD_LIBRARY_PATH at some point during the
build).
</li>
<li>Set QTDIR=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-3.3.8 and
QMAKESPEC=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-3.3.8/mkspecs/solaris-g++
and add $QTDIR/bin to the PATH then configure, make and
install Recoll</li>
<li>Don't forget to use <tt>recollindex</tt> for the first index
build, <tt>recoll</tt> does not work for this (exception handling
mystery probably).</li>
</ul>
</p>
<p>Obviously, there are other ways to do it (use CC, install
some place else ... ), but I tried this one.</p>
</blockquote>
<h2><a name="ports">FreeBSD ports</a></h2>
<p>There are ports for both xapian-core
and recoll in the standard tree, you may just need to update
your ports (cvsup, portsnap), or you can get the ports from
the FreeBSD site.
<a href="http://cvsweb.freebsd.org/ports/databases/xapian-core">
xapian port</a>
<a href="http://cvsweb.freebsd.org/ports/deskutils/recoll">
recoll port</a>.</p>
<h2><a name="translations">Translations</a></h2>
<p>Most of the translations for 1.13 are incomplete (and I
forgot to update the message files for 1.14, ugh). The source
translation files are included in the source release. If your
language has some english messages left and you want to take a
shot at fixing the problem, you can send the results to
<a href="mailto:jfd@recoll.org">me</a> and
earn my gratefulness (and your less multilingual
compatriot's)...</p>
<p>You can use the <em>.ts</em> file to alter the translations if you
wish (use Qt's <em>linguist</em> tool to edit the source file,
then <em>lrelease</em> to produce the <em>.qm</em> file.).
The <literal>.qm</literal> file should be copied to
<span class="filename">/usr/[local/]share/recoll/translations</span>
</p>
<p><a href="translations/recoll_xx.ts">recoll_xx.ts</a> is a blank
Recoll 1.14 message file, handy to work on a new translation.</p>
