Apertium-quality/Installation

Requirements

You must have:

• Python >=3.1

Recommended for installation:

• python3-lxml [1]
• python3-nltk (Available in my repository; explained later)

All other dependencies are installed automatically.

With easy_install

If you have easy_install installed for Python 3, just run:

easy_install apertium-quality

From source

The source code can be acquired in a few ways.

Git:

git clone git://github.com/bbqsrc/apertium-quality.git

SVN:

svn co https://apertium.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/apertium/trunk/apertium-tools/apertium-quality

Tarball:

wget https://github.com/bbqsrc/apertium-quality/tarball/master

With root

Installing to the root of your Python installation is easy:

./autogen.sh
make && make install && make install-nltk

Enter yes when prompted. If errors are spat about incorrect Python version being detected, tell it which Python 3 to use with the PYTHON environment variable like:

PYTHON=/path/to/python3 ./autogen.sh

Without root (user prefix)

Installation without root is no more difficult than above:

./autogen.sh --prefix ~/yourprefix
make && make install && make install-nltk

After installation, restart your terminal.

Troubleshooting

DistributionNotFound (PYTHONPATH not set)

$ aq-covtest
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/local/bin/aq-covtest", line 5, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import load_entry_point
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/site-packages/distribute-0.6.19-py3.2.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 2710, in <module>
    working_set.require(__requires__)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/site-packages/distribute-0.6.19-py3.2.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 686, in require
    needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
  File "/usr/lib/python3.2/site-packages/distribute-0.6.19-py3.2.egg/pkg_resources.py", line 584, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: apertium-quality==0.3

Your PYTHONPATH is most likely not correct (when you did "make install", it told you the path to add to it).
