-You will need clucene runtime and core libraries, we developed against 0.9.21b-2 but
-any 0.9 branch should work fine, let us know if you experience any issues. You may find
-that the libclucene0ldbl runtime is already installed, this is fine and typical since
-clucene is a very popular search library.
-
-$ sudo apt-get install libclucene-dev
-$ sudo apt-get install libclucene0ldbl

-By default, and this is deliberate, the clucene install places the config headers into
-a platform specific location. For my install I just copy the platform (linux) specific
-header config into the normal /usr/include/CLucene directory with the following:
-
-$ sudo cp /usr/lib/CLucene/clucene-config.h /usr/include/CLucene
-
-Next we need to comment out the two CLUCENE lines in gcconfig.pri and they should read:
-
-CLUCENE_INCLUDE = /usr/include/CLucene
-CLUCENE_LIBS    = -lclucene
