RE: [Aspell-user] Query regarding Creating a customised dictionary inGNU aspell-0.50.5

[Singh, Revant]

Hi,


I untarred the aspell install file and ran the below commands as root.
./configure
make
make install


The source code seems to compile fine but when i try to run the aspell
executable generated in the prog directory with the below command :(I am
running these on linux, hope this is not an issue)
aspell --lang=en create master ./Business_Terms.rws < Business_Terms.txt

I am getting this error :

aspell: Symbol `_ZTVN7acommon6StringE' has different size in shared
object, consider re-linking
Segmentation fault 

Any idea on what could be going wrong.My main aim here is to create a
dictionary which has all our Company related Business terms in it so
that the aspell spell checker doesn't flag these business terms as
spelling mistakes.

I am using the aspell 0.50.5

Thanks,
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

mv: cannot stat `libpspell.so.15.0.3': No such file or directory
libtool: install: error: relink `libpspell.la' with the above
command

Hi Revant,

I'm using Cygwin and I don't have the version of aspell on my
system anymore, So I don't get the same results as yourself.

All is not lost. you're having a problem with libpspell, but did
libaspell succeed? Take a looks, do you have a libaspell.so in
/usr/local/lib ? do you have any thing that matches libaspell* in
/usr/local/lib or anywhere ? What do you have in the .libs
directory? (that is where the make results go before
installation) Do you have a aspell? Does it work? Maybe you can
manually move the some of the files from .libs to where they
belong?

Do you want to say why you chose such an early version of aspell?

Hope that helps,
Gary
