(And if separate, how hard is to enable it? Patching it into "proper" clucene is a no-go.) As Radek says, we should (if it was only me: must) support building against "standard" libclucene. And relying on a git snapshot is bad...</div></blockquote>I can't guess at if or when there will be a clucene release. However the released version is ancient, and the developers themselves say the git version is stable and should be used. On the other hand, I don't think distributions carry it. I could look into using the released 1.9.x-compatible version instead, but I expect there was a reason for using Lucene 2.3.x. There is a tag for clucene-src-2.3.3.4 for which there are also tarballs on the sourceforge page. We could depend on that version -- it is a small dependency and takes under a minute to build. Regarding the contribs: it is part of their git repository, and can be enabled as part of the standard build. <blockquote cite="mid:20120213221540.GC19625@rene-engelhard.de" class="iwcQuote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(0, 0, 255); padding-left: 13px; margin-left: 0pt;" type="cite"><div class="mimepart text plain">> > * Can someone help to figure out how to make CLucene part of the LO > > build process?

But he didn't post *any* makefile, so trying to write a configure check is moot right now anyways ;-)</div></blockquote>I'm planning to work on that later today.
