Xapian 1.4.0 released

[Kevin Duraj]

I have installed the new Xapian 1.4.0 ,  during the installation, I
haven't seen any problems, however, when I execute commands quest and
delve I get different versions, and my Perl-based searches return
Exception: Couldn't detect type of database ... and what are these
glass things in the index directories? There is a no new version of
Perl Search::Xapian.

$ quest -version
quest - xapian-core 1.4.0

$ delve --version
delve - xapian-core 1.2.23

Exception: Couldn't detect type of database
