1 year ago Hi, we're aware that 4.6.1 is old. We are not updating clouseau to use newer versions of Lucene, that will likely happen in a new project instead. For my part I am working on a replacement here https://github.com/apache/couchdb/pull/429 which uses Lucene 9. The goal is to be able to upgrade between major releases of Lucene by rebuilding, because of the restriction that Lucene X can only read Lucene X-1 indexes.
Clouseau is on version 4, but it should be at least on version 8, which will require 3 upgrades because of n-1 index version compatibility guarantees.
Lucene 9 is much better also:
<lucene-version>4.6.1</lucene-version>^ This seems a bit negligent. Do you need help with testing or outlining how to upgrade your Clouseau safely?
