Hey, Olly. This would be awesome, if this isn't too much trouble for you. The xapian fixes overcome very large performance issue in notmuch, so I'm sure a few other people would be interested in seeing this package as well. But I don't want to dump a lot of extra work on your plate because we can't be patient for the new release, or aren't willing to put in the work to install from upstream source. An alternative (if it's also not too much trouble) would be if you could just jot down how one could build debs from the upstream source. Then folks could just make their own debs, without having to recreate the packaging, and you would have to worry about putting it together and uploading it yourself. Just a thought. Either way, thanks again for the help. jamie.
