These instructions will help you install Apertium on a system running Mac OS/X.

Requirements

The requirements are a full installation of XCode (http://developer.apple.com/tools/xcode/) and Macports (http://www.macports.org/install.php). Then install with Macports the following packages: 

$ sudo port install autoconf automake expat flex gettext gperf help2man libiconv libtool \
libxml2 libxslt m4 ncurses ncursesw p5-locale-gettext pcre perl5.8  pkgconfig zlib

(Some of them are necessary just because Macports wants it)

You will also need to edit the file ~/.bash_profile and add /opt/local/bin to the PATH variable. This can also be done each time from the command line as follows: 

$ export PATH=/opt/local/bin:$PATH

Downloading

$ svn co http://apertium.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/apertium/trunk/lttoolbox
$ svn co http://apertium.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/apertium/trunk/apertium

Then choose a language package.

Compilation

For each package, lttoolbox, apertium and a language package, do: 

$ ./autogen.sh --prefix /opt/local
$ make
$ sudo make install
