Hi These days we discover the challenges and joys of searching things in multiple databases. Xapian is great because it allows to do so in one run, which means it recombines the results by itself. In our case, our indexes can be multi-language and steemed accordingly. It means, we have for example one index in French and an other one in English. Unfortunately, the search request can either be steemed in English or in French. Which means that if an unsteemed pattern might exist in both languages (French and English share a lot of words), the steemed version will be for one language only and therefore we will get results for one database. For the moment, this is not really clear how we should deal with this problem/limitation. Any idea? Would that be possible to merge properly two Msets (resulting of two search requests)?
