Installing Apertium on Slackware

This Guide is for Latest Slackware 14.1

  • Change user to root:
su

Enter password(if required).

Install Slapt-get and Slackpkg

  • 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:

  • Open Terminal. Navigate to Downloads Directory.
cd ~/Downloads
  • Install the Package
installpkg slapt-get-0.10.2r-x86_64-1.tgz
  • Slackpkg:
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 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


  • Upgrade using Slapt-get:
slapt-get update

Install dependencies, needed to build Apertium

  • Install can be done with Slackpkg as alternative if slapt-get not works
slapt-get --install make gcc linux-api-headers pcre-dev libxml2-dev libxslt-dev subversion pkg-config automake flex libtool svn

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 languave Airs in the trunk of apertoum. First we will clone 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-<languare-pair>

Change <languare-pair> as your requirement for eg.en-es

Set up enviroment

This is required for proper installation of apertium. It can be added in .bashrc to prevent typing everytime you restart.

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-<languare-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 "Hello World" | apertium <languare-pair>
