SeSQL may work with later versions of those software, but was not tested with them.
SeSQL is a standard Django application. Just drop it in the apps/ directory, and add it to enabled applications into settings.py .
Before using SeSQL you must configure it. The configuration file must be named sesql_config.py in the python path (usually the project).
For a summary of how to quickly configure SeSQL, please refer to the tutorial. This document contains a detailed list of all recognized options.
Since version 0.10, SeSQL can work with non-django ORM. See sqlalchemy.txt for more informations about it.
PostgreSQL's full text search is based on the concept of text search configuration (TSC). Those configuration are detailed on the PostgreSQL manual, and allow to control things like stopwords. SeSQL requires a default TSC, and can support additional TSCs to be used on specific indexes.

LC_ALL=fr_FR.UTF-8 iconv -f utf-8 -t ascii//TRANSLIT \ /usr/share/postgresql/8.4/tsearch_data/french.stop > \ /usr/share/postgresql/8.4/tsearch_data/ascii_french.stop
ADDITIONAL_TS_CONFIG
This should be a list of SQL statements, to define extra TSCs that can be used in specific fields.
Current version of SeSQL has a few constraints :
If you need to rebuild all SeSQL indexes (because you changed them too heavily for example) you can do :
./manage.py createsesqltables | ./manage.py dbshell ./manage.py sesqlreindex
