Capistrano deploying full text search on Rails using acts_as_xapian

acts_as_xapian is a rails plugin for Xapian, a full text search engine.

acts_as_xapian installs the search engine database inside the plugin directory, under xapiandbs. If you use Capistrano as a deployment tool and since the entire codebase is rewritten (including the plugin directory),  you will have to rebuild the entire index every time you do a deployment.
