Package: libsqlite3-0 Version: 3.8.4.3-2 Severity: normal Note: this bug is not asking you to re-enable ICU support.
Upstream ships with a custom tokenizer for FTS4 called Unicode61. It follows the case folding rules as set out in Unicode 6.1 and can also optionally strip off diacritics. These rules greatly enhance the FTS4 indexing in 95% of user cases while not requiring you to link against ICU. Building with Unicode61 is easy: add -DSQLITE_ENABLE_FTS4_UNICODE61 to cflags and call it a day. I re-built the package locally and ran tests and everything is fine so far. The build change is not invasive at all and I think it would be a good addition for the upcoming Jessie release. Here's upstream's documentation on Unicode61. http://www.sqlite.org/fts3.html#tokenizer -- David Gilman :DG< http://gilslotd.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
