MeCab is an open source morphological analysis engine developed through a project "Kyoto University and NTT Corporation".
Please refer the MeCab web site (
http://mecab.sourceforge.net/) for more information about.
Please refer the system requirements for which version of MeCab that Denbun supports.
- 1. Expanding the package
-
Expand the file you transferred by FTP. In this example, it assumes that the file exists in "/home/guest" directory.
|
[root@xxxxxx guest]# cd /usr/local/src
[root@xxxxxx src]# tar xvzf /home/guest/mecab-0.97.tar.gz
|
After the expansion, a directory named "mecab-0.97" is created in "/usr/local/src".
- 2. Install the package
-
To configure the package, use configure scripts.
Specify UTF-8 as a character set.
Move to the directory you expand the package and run the configure script.
|
[root@xxxxxx src]# cd /usr/local/src/mecab-0.97/
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# ./configure --with-charset=utf8

Make the package.
User GNU make to make the package.

[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# gmake

gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/mecab-0.97'.
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]#

Now, it is ready to install the package. This step requires the super user (root).
|
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# gmake install
.

gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/local/src/mecab-0.97'.
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]#
|
After the checking the installation, use gmake clean command to cleaning. This command deletes unnecessary files and makes free space.
|
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# gmake clean
|
- 3. Create a link of the library
-
Since MeCab library is installed in "/usr/local/lib", create a symbolic link in "/usr/lib".
|
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# ln -s /usr/local/lib/libmecab.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/libmecab.so
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# ln -s /usr/local/lib/libmecab.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib/libmecab.so.1
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# ls -la /usr/lib/libmecab*

- Install a dictionary for MeCab
-
- 4. Expand the package source
-
Expand the file you transferred by FTP. In this example, it assumes that the file exists in "/home/guest" directory.
|
[root@xxxxxx mecab-0.97]# cd /usr/local/src
[root@xxxxxx src]# tar xvzf /home/guest/mecab-ipadic-2.7.0-20070801.tar.gz
|
After the expansion, a directory named "mecab-ipadic-2.7.0-20070801" is created in "/usr/local/src".
- 5. Install the package
-
To configure the package, use configure scripts.
Specify UTF-8 as a character set.
