Hello,
Is anyone running Dovecot 2.4.4 with multilingual FTS flatcurve on Debian
12/13, using the packages from Dovecot.org?
I suspect a packaging/build issue related to language detection. It looks
like libexttextcat is not included in the Debian build.
Simple reproduction with doveadm:
doveadm fts tokenize -u localpart@domain 'This is the house. Das
ist das HausaEUR~
aEUR"> Warning: Can't detect its language - assuming de
aEUR|aEUR|
My suspicion:
If the "libexttextcat-dev" package was not installed during the
"configure" step of the package creation process, then
"HAVE_LANG_EXTTEXTCAT" will not be set.
And if the define "HAVE_LANG_EXTTEXTCAT" is not set during the compilation
of "src/lib-language/language.c", then "language_textcat_init" always
returns "LANGUAGE_DETECT_RESULT_UNKNOWN;". Consequently, doveadm
invariably translates this return value into the message: "Warning: Can't
detect its language - assuming $DEFAULT-LANG".
If I download the source code from Dovecot.org and build the dovecot
vendor package myself, "language detection" worksaEUR"provided that
"libexttextcat-dev" has been installed beforehand.
My simple test to check whether the installed version contains
aEURzlibexttextcataEURoe:
(My build finds references to libexttextcat; the build from Dovecot.org
finds none.)
nm --print-file-name --dynamic --undefined-only
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dovecot/* | grep textcat
aEUR"> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dovecot/libdovecot-language.so.0.0.0:
U special_textcat_Init
aEUR"> /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/dovecot/libdovecot-storage.so.0.0.0:
U textcat_ReleaseClassifyFullOutput
Background:
In my self-built package, exttextcat-related symbols appear in both
libdovecot-language and libdovecot-storage; I assume this is expected due
to the build/link layout.
Regards,
Jens
