Bug Description
Harvest is one of the earlier and most powerful search engines for Linux.
I have been using it for 13 years on Slackware / Redhat.
http://
harvest-1.8.3 is the stable version.
I get errors compiling it on ubuntu 8.10.
Details:
1. ./configure finishes with no errors after installing bison and flex
2. make crashes when compiling "collector.c"
Harvest is not a package yet, but comes as tar.gz file.
Having a package would be great.
I will do whatever I can to test / help. Please contact me.
Best,
Oori.
Forgot to mention licensing is GPL, and it would need packaging.
