Using and installing the Sphinx Search Daemon with a wide range of stemmer, not only English
cd mysrc
wget http://sphinxsearch.com/files/sphinx-2.0.3-release.tar.gz
tar xf sphinx-2.0.3-release.tar.gz
cd sphinx-2.0.3-release/
cd libstemmer_c/
wget http://snowball.tartarus.org/dist/libstemmer_c.tgz
tar xf libstemmer_c.tgz
mv libstemmer_c/* . -f
cd ..
./configure --with-libstemmer
make
sudo make install
Then, the stemming can be activated for: danish dutch english finnish french german hungarian italian norwegian portuguese romanian russian spanish swedish turkish
In your sphinx.conf or config/sphinx.yml (thinking sphinx, the great Rails gem for managing Sphinx, sphinx.yml) set the new stemmers:
# sphinx.conf
morphology = libstemmer_de, stem_en
# or sphinx.yml
morphology: libstemmer_de, stem_en
So, more than one stemmer can be activated.
