[SRILM User List] How to compile srilm-1.5.11 under Ubuntu 10.04?

[JIA Pei]

Hi, all:

I'm trying to install srilm-1.5.11 on my laptop.
My environments:
Ubuntu 10.04
gcc (Ubuntu 4.4.3-4ubuntu5) 4.4.3
srilm-1.5.11

Followed the description in file "INSTALL",
I just "make" srilm from its top-level folder,
but obtained the following error messages.


jiapei at jiapei-laptop:~/Tools/speechrecog/srilm-1.5.11$ make
make: /sbin/machine-type: Command not found
mkdir include lib bin
mkdir: cannot create directory `lib': File exists
make: [dirs] Error 1 (ignored)
make init
make[1]: /sbin/machine-type: Command not found
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/jiapei/Tools/speechrecog/srilm-1.5.11'
for subdir in misc dstruct lm flm lattice utils; do \
                (cd $subdir/src; make SRILM= MACHINE_TYPE= OPTION= MAKE_PIC=
init) || exit 1; \
        done
make[2]: Entering directory
`/home/jiapei/Tools/speechrecog/srilm-1.5.11/misc/src'
Makefile:24: /common/Makefile.common.variables: No such file or directory
Makefile:139: /common/Makefile.common.targets: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/common/Makefile.common.targets'.
 Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/home/jiapei/Tools/speechrecog/srilm-1.5.11/misc/src'
make[1]: *** [init] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jiapei/Tools/speechrecog/srilm-1.5.11'
make: *** [World] Error 2


Why are there so many error messages, and
is there a standard way to
"configure
make
install"
this package?


Best Regards
JIA
