[Koha] Cyrillic Character Search w/ Zebra

I just found the answer my own question:

The files /etc/koha/zebradb/etc/word-phrase-utf.chr
/etc/koha/zebradb/lang_defs/en/sort-string-utf.chr must be updated to
provide cyrillic support.  Zebra hasn't yet gotten around to providing
non-latin based character sorting in UTF-8 by default yet.

Update the following lines in both files:

encoding utf-8
# basic character set
lowercase {0-9}{a-y}üzæäøöåабвгдежзийклмнопрстуфхцчшщьыъэюя
uppercase {0-9}{A-Y}ÜZÆÄØÖÅАБВГДЕЖЗИЙКЛМНОПРСТУФХЦЧШЩЬЫЪЭЮЯ

I actually had to set the file encoding in sort-string-utf.chr before
saving. Using vim :set fileencoding=utf-8

Then rebuild_zebra.pl -z -a -b with the proper exports

I am not sure this is the proper way to do it, but it worked for me.
