Spelling Correction

• Spelling corrections will now be suggested even for words in the spelling dictionary, provided the correction has at least the same frequency. Partly addresses #225.

QueryParser

• Fix handling of groups of terms which are all stopwords - in situations where this causes a problem we now disable stopword checks for such groups. (#245)

• Fix to be smarter about handling a boolean filter term containing ".." in the presence of valuerangeprocessors.

RPM

• RPM spec file updated.

Search::Xapian

• Enquire::get_eset() now accepts Perl subclasses of ExpandDecider.
