Oh! Thanks!
delete from pg_ts_cfgmap where dict_name = ARRAY['ru_stem'];
solves the root of the problem. But unfortunately russian.med (ru_ispell_cp1251) contains all Russian names, so "Ivanov" is converted to "Ivan" by ispell too. :-(
Now
select lexize('ru_ispell_cp1251', 'Дмитриев') -> "Дмитрий"
select lexize('ru_ispell_cp1251', 'Иванов') -> "Иван"
- it is completely wrong!
I have a database with all Russian name, is it possible to use it (how?) to make lexize() not to convert "Ivanov" to "Ivan" even if the ispell dicrionary contains an element for "Ivan"? So, this pseudo-code logic is needed:
function new_lexize($string) {
$stem = lexize('ru_ispell_cp1251', $string);
if ($stem in names_database) return $string; else return $stem;
}
Maybe tsearch2 implements this logic already?

no problem, just modify pg_ts_cfgmap, which contains mapping
token - dictionaries.
if you change configuration you should rebuild tsvector and reindex.
10 days looks very suspicious.
