I am not an Ubunut developer, so hopefully somebody will take notice soon, but:
RE#4: I used packages.ubuntu.com to search for UnicodeData.txt and saw that it was in unicode-data and installed it before I noticed it was a suggestion. I did it all from command line, sorry. RE#5: While it doesn't seem required it does get some extra info from it (silly emoji): sven@gen-sven2:~$ unicode beer Cannot find UnicodeData.txt, please place it into /usr/share/unidata/UnicodeData.txt, /usr/share/unicode/UnicodeData.txt, ~/.unicode/ or current working directory (optionally you can gzip it). Without the file, searching will be much slower. sven@gen-sven2:~$ sudo apt-get install unicode-data Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree Reading state information...
