Update Information:

Update to new upstream release:    - Unicode text.  Charset conversion errors
are better handled, tokenizing was improved and leads to far less "rubbish"
terms. Issues the UI had with non-Latin locales were resolved  - Web metasearch.
Plugins were updated, extracts and results URLs are more accurate.  - more
coherent UI.  Some features were previously only available in search mode,
others in browse mode; some were duplicated. The new menu layout tries to unify
both modes. The status window' refresh is smoother. Preferences can be open
separately from the UI. Spelling suggestions are less invasive, they pop up in
the same tabs as queries results.  - improved More Like This.  Stored queries
generated on More Like This don't include the original query's terms, stopwords,
infrequent terms or similar terms if the stemming language is set.  - command-
line and desktop integration.  pinot-cd.sh implements a "tagged cd", and lets
one change the shell's current directory to the directory that matches the path
elements passed as parameter. The Deskbar module shows snippets when used with
Deskbar 2.24.  - more flexible daemon.  The daemon is smarter at crawling
symlinks, it skips those that refer to locations that have been crawled or that
it knows will be crawled. It is much better at resuming where it stopped after
user interruption. While user-set meta-data would previously be lost on a
reindex, or when the file changed on the disk, it's now preserved.
