A Lucene index created with PyLucene should be the same byte for byte as an 
index created with Java Lucene. If that is not the case, please send in code 
to reproduce the error, it's a bug.

I've never used Luke myself so I can't tell what the error is about. Maybe the 
version of Luke is not compatible with the version of Lucene/PyLucene you're 
using ? There have been index format changes in Lucene 2.0.
