Installing mecab

Opened this issue · 1 comments

I know there must be very simple solution for this but as I don't know it I am asking.

How do I install taku910/mecab

I got the following error while installing external libraries for LASER (https://github.com/facebookresearch/LASER)
automatic installation of the Japanese tokenizer mecab may be tricky
Please install it manually from https://github.com/taku910/mecab

The installation directory should be /home/appuser/sheshank.k/projects/laser/tools-external/mecab

Is this the right place to issue? I mean here is the repo of MeCab, not LASER. I guess it’d be better to ask at LASER issue.

The standard installation is written in here
http://taku910.github.io/mecab/#install , or you can check the script of LASER
