FACET unsupported

[mark]

hi
i am using xapian latest version from fedora 9 repository and the
latest xappy-0.5 version.
i am trying to add FACET field to the doc as in the
examples/introduction.html and i get this error below.

does xappy-0.5 version work with xapian 1.0.7?
thanks a lot!

conn.add_field_action('category_name', xappy.FieldActions.FACET,
type='string')
File "/home/mark/work/common/xappy/indexerconnection.py", line 177,
in add_field_action
actions.add(self._field_mappings, fieldtype, **kwargs)
File "/home/mark/work/common/xappy/fieldactions.py", line 308, in add
raise errors.IndexerError("Action unsupported with this release of xapian")
xappy.errors.IndexerError: Action unsupported with this release of xapian

rpm -qa | grep xapian
xapian-core-1.0.7-1.fc9.i386
xapian-core-libs-1.0.7-1.fc9.i386
xapian-bindings-python-1.0.7-2.fc9.i386

xappy-0.5 works with xapian 1.0.7, but not all features are available,
as you have observed. To use the FACET field action, you will need to
use a xapian snapshot, which can be obtained by running the
"libs/get_xapian.py" script, and compiling the xapian-core and
xapian-bindings packages which this will download.
