I recently upgraded my system to a distribution where the Xapian packages 
cause this problem. It turns out that an API change occurred in the Xapian 
Python bindings, and it looks like Moin 1.8's code uses the deprecated and now 
unsupported way of referring to various things within Xapian.

I've uploaded a patch to the following place:

Let us know if this fixes the problem for you!
