Hi,

Dovecote includes a config file for use with Solr 9, at 'doc/solr-config-9.xml'. However, this file has two problems:

• it hard codes the path to the Solr installation
• it hard codes version numbers of Icu/Lucene packages

This issue can be be easily fixed by using the '${solr.install.dir}' variable in that config file. The attached patch will fix both issues.

Best wishes, Saman Ghannadzaded
