Comment (by Olly Betts):

 We don't guarantee arbitrary combinations of xapian-core version and
 xapian-bindings version will work together and recommend using matching
 versions; non-matching versions often will work together but there's no
 guarantee.  You should have got a configure-time warning from xapian-
 bindings like:

 ```
 Xapian library is version $XAPIAN_VERSION but the bindings are version
 $PACKAGE_VERSION - we strongly recommend using matching versions.
 ```

 I gather from #818 you can't using the matching xapian-bindings version
 for the xapian-core packaged in Ubuntu 20.04 because you need support for
 Python 3.13.  I'd suggest either using newer xapian-core backported
 packages from the PPA
 (https://launchpad.net/~xapian/+archive/ubuntu/backports), or build and
 locally install the matching xapian-core version yourself first and then
 point xapian-bindings at that when you configure it).
