Building FTS-Xapian on CentOS 7 #40

Closed alessice closed 4 years ago

Hi, I'm trying to build your plugin on Centos 7 and Dovecot 2.2.36 (build from source).

The first difficulty is to build Xapian 1.4.x but I'm looking for support on related mailing-list.

The second difficulty is to install libicu-60 since centos 7 is provided with libicu-50. The version 60 of ICU is mandatory or just because you are develop your plugin on debian where the libicu version is 60 by default?

Thanks

Hi,

I have successfully build xapian from source, and also ICU 66. I have found some issue to build fts-xapian because I have installed xapian under /opt/xapian/ but was unable to find a configure options for fts-xapian to said where is xapian-config so I rebuild xapian to install under /usr/local.

If possible please ask some configure options to fts-xapian like --with-xapian= and --with-icu= so we can install it under non standard locations.

Thanks

Can you tell me what "pkg-config --cflags-only-I icu-uc icu-io icu-i18n" returns ?

grosjo commented 4 years ago

can you also test adding "export PATH=$PATH:/opt/xapian/" ?

@Project0 Can you clarify what needs to be updated or a PR if the case happen ?

project0 commented 4 years ago

basically the ICU version dependency needs to be lowered down from 60 to 50. I could not find a issue yet.
