Installation/Developers

If you want to work on Apertium language data and/or tools, you most likely want to use the binaries from Tino Didriksens nightly packages. Here's how you install them:

Debian/Ubuntu

wget https://apertium.projectjj.com/apt/install-nightly.sh -O - | sudo bash

sudo apt-get -f install apertium-all-dev

RHEL/CentOS/Fedora/OpenSUSE

wget https://apertium.projectjj.com/rpm/install-nightly.sh -O - | sudo bash

# If using RHEL/CentOS:
sudo yum install apertium-all-devel
# If using Fedora:
sudo dnf install apertium-all-devel
# If using OpenSUSE:
sudo zypper install apertium-all-devel

Mac with Macports

Prerequisites:

1. Make sure XCode is installed
   • If not, download it from http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/
   • Be sure to include Command Line Tools (http://railsapps.github.io/xcode-command-line-tools.html is nice guide if you get stuck here)
2. Make sure Macports is installed
   • If not, download it from http://www.macports.org/install.php

Install dependencies with macports and then the nightly apertium packages:

sudo port install autoconf automake expat flex \
 gettext gperf help2man libiconv libtool \
 libxml2 libxslt m4 ncurses p5-locale-gettext \
 pcre perl5 pkgconfig zlib gawk icu cmake boost gperftools

curl https://apertium.projectjj.com/osx/install-nightly.sh | sudo bash

(see Apertium_on_Mac_OS_X if you use Homebrew instead of Macports)
