Installing Apertium on Slackware
This guide is for Slackware 14.1.
Preparation
Change user to root and Navigate to other directory:
su sudo mkdir ~/Downloads cd ~/Downloads
Enter password(if required).
Install slapt-get
- For i386
wget http://software.jaos.org/slackpacks/14.1/slapt-get/slapt-get-0.10.2r-i386-1.tgz
- For x86_64
wget http://software.jaos.org/slackpacks/14.1-x86_64/slapt-get/slapt-get-0.10.2r-x86_64-1.tgz
Assuming x86_64:
- Install slapt-get
installpkg slapt-get-0.10.2r-x86_64-1.tgz
- Upgrade the system:
slapt-get --upgrade
Install dependencies needed to build Apertium
- For i486:
slapt-get --install make-3.82-i486-3 gcc-4.7.1-i486-1 kernel-headers-3.2.29_smp-x86-1 libxml2-2.8.0-i486-1 libxslt-1.1.26-i486-2 \ subversion-1.7.6-i486-1 pkg-config-0.25-i486-1 automake-1.11.5-noarch-1 flex-2.5.35-i486-1 libtool-2.4.2-i486-1 pcre-8.33-i486-1 gawk-4.1.0-i486-2
- For x86_64:
slapt-get --install make-3.82-x86_64-4 gcc-4.8.2-x86_64-1 kernel-headers-3.10.17-x86-3 libxml2-2.9.1-x86_64-1 libxslt-1.1.28-x86_64-1 \ subversion-1.7.13-x86_64-1 pkg-config-0.25-x86_64-1 automake-1.11.5-noarch-1 flex-2.5.37-x86_64-1 libtool-2.4.2-x86_64-2 pcre-8.33-x86_64-1 gawk-4.1.0-x86_64-2
SVN Checkout
SVN or Apache Subversion is a software versioning and revision control system distributed as free software under the Apache License. There are many language pairs in the Apertium repository that can be installed. Firstly, check out the repositories:
svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/apertium/svn/trunk/lttoolbox svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/apertium/svn/trunk/apertium svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/apertium/svn/trunk/apertium-lex-tools svn checkout https://svn.code.sf.net/p/apertium/svn/trunk/apertium-<language-pair>
Change <language-pair> to the language pair you want eg. en-es
Set up environment
This is required for proper installation of Apertium. This section can be added into .bashrc so that you do not need to retype these when you open up a new terminal.
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} export LD_LIBRARY_PATH PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig:${PKG_CONFIG_PATH} export PKG_CONFIG_PATH
Compiling
- Change to each directory in order: lttoolbox, apertium, apertium-lex-tools, apertium-<language-pair> using
cd
Then in each directory run:
./autogen.sh make make install ldconfig
Finishing up and Testing
- Now, exit root shell:
exit
- To test:
echo <some text of source language> | apertium <language-pair>
Troubleshooting
Slackpkg
Installation of the packages can be done with slackpkg if slapt-get does not work.
wget http://www.slackpkg.org/stable/slackpkg-2.82.0-noarch-2.tgz installpkg slackpkg-2.82.0-noarch-2.tgz
- Configure the mirrors by "pico /etc/slackpkg/mirrors" and commenting out the mirrors not required by adding # symbol at starting of line.
- Update the gpg by using "slackpkg update gpg"
- Upgrade using Slackpkg:
slackpkg update slackpkg install-new slackpkg upgrade-all
