Hi,
No reply for more than one week. Someone please reply.
There are Chinese, Japanese, and Korean translation of www.debian.org
but search.debian.org cannot search words in these languages.
Please do the following:
1. Install libchasen-dev, libchasen0, and ipadic packages to klecker.
2. Add me ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) as a user of postgresql database at klecker.
2. Create a postgresql database for which I have write permission at klecker.
Then I can prove the improvement (or bugfix, I regard) in the last mail
which I cite the whole contents of.
