Description

FYI it looks like it doesn't stem bananas. So banana will find bananas and banana but bananas only finds bananas. Minor point I guess except for fruit and veg sites :-).

I cannot reproduce this problem in version 6.1 of the module. I have created one page containing the word "banana", and another containing the word "bananas". Once I run cron to reindex the site, both of the pages come up in search results when I search for "banana" and when I search for "bananas".

There is a known problem with the search excerpt -- is it possible that is what you are seeing? If so, please mark this with status "duplicate". See #493270: search_excerpt() doesn't work well with stemming for more information.

I didn't think it was an except issue as I got no page found. But, with stemmer fix it is working now and bananas or banana returns pages containing either banana or bananas. Perhaps I forgot to run and/or rather my auto update was broken.
