Zebra configuration for regional language searching

I have tried these steps on Koha 3.12.7 and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.
Koha installation method based on Debian packages.

Open following file,  
Applications > Accessories > Terminal

sudo mousepad /etc/koha/zebradb/etc/default.idx

Find the line "charmap word-phrase-utf.chr" and comment it by inserting a # symbol. The same line appeared in next paragraph too, do the same.


Add following line below the commented lines, 
icuchain words-icu.xml

Rebuild zebra
sudo koha-rebuild-zebra -v -f library
