Hi Bernhard, your suggestion sounds good.
Additionally, I would open a dialog when starting synaptic for the first time and ask the user if he wants to use / install quick search / xapian. If he wants to use it, install it directly. That would be the best solution, I think. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
