Some external libraries are required to compile FreeLing:
-
- libboost & libicu
Boost library. Included in all Linux distributions. You
probably do not have all neeeded components
installed. Make sure to install both runtime and
development packages for:
-
- libicu
-
- libboost-regex
-
- libboost-system
-
- libboost-thread
-
- libboost-program-options
-
- libboost-locale (only required for MacOSX or FreeBSD, not required in Linux)
-
- libz
Compression library. Included in all Linux distributions. You
probably do not have all neeeded components
installed. Make sure to install both runtime and
development packages for:
-
- zlib
Orientative package names (check the package manager in
your system):
-
- Ubuntu/Debian: libboost-dev libboost-regex-dev libicu-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev zlib1g-dev
-
- OpenSuse/Fedora/Mandriva: boost-devel boost-regex-devel libicu-devel boost-system-devel boost-program-options-devel boost-thread-dev zlib-devel
-
- Slackware: boost icu4c zlib
Note that you need to install both the binary libraries and the
development packages (usually sufixed as -dev or
-devel).
Most package managers will install both binary and development
packages when the -dev package is required. If this is
not your case, you'll need to manually select both packages.
