RE: [Aspell-user] Query regarding Creating a customised dictionary inGNU aspell-0.60.3

[Singh, Revant]

Hi Gary,

Thanks for the help.I executed the first two commands mentioned by you
in the below email i.e.
./configure and 
make and they ran fine.

But when i did a make install, i got the following error message at the
end :

 /bin/sh ../libtool --mode=install /usr/bin/install -c  libpspell.la
/usr/local/lib/libpspell.la
libtool: install: warning: relinking `libpspell.la'
(cd /prod/appl/kanisa/aspell-0.50.5/lib; /bin/sh ../libtool
--mode=relink g++ -g -O2 -o libpspell.la -rpath /usr/local/lib
-version-info 15:3:0 dummy.lo libaspell.la )
mv: cannot stat `libpspell.so.15.0.3': No such file or directory
libtool: install: error: relink `libpspell.la' with the above command
before installing it
make[2]: *** [install-libLTLIBRARIES] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/prod/appl/kanisa/aspell-0.50.5/lib'
make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/prod/appl/kanisa/aspell-0.50.5/lib'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1


I ran it from the aspell-0.50.5 directory in my linux box with root
permissions.


Thanks,
Revant

Now for the latest GNU aspell-0.60.3 version for unix which i downloaded
from the website, i don't see the aspell scrip in it.There is a scripts
folder there but it contains some other perl scripts like ispell,spell
etc..There is also an aspell.cpp file.Do i have to compile this code and
then use the bin it creates in the above command.

Hi Revant,

Yes, you downloaded the source for aspell and it needs to be compiled.
The usual way is as follows.
./configure
make
make install
