[Corpora-List] Xaira for Linux?

Yes. But you have to install xerces-c and ICU (IBM Internationalization 
Components for Unicode - http://ibm.com/software/globalization/icu/ ) first. 
According to your listing, the second one is missing in your system.

However, for me, the indexer in 1.18 is crashing, anyway. Maybe a problem of 
my x86_64 (amd64) architecture...? Not solved, yet.

Anyway, I think you should join the Xaira e-mail list at 
http://www.tei-c.org.uk/tei-bin/betatest (yes, the form is a bit out of date) 
and ask questions directly there. The developers will be happy for any 
feedback and they will help you with all problems.

Just ignore this and join the mail list, it doesn't matter what you fill in, 
except of your e-mail address, of course.

Best regards,
Pavel
