[SRILM User List] Problem installing a software that depends on SRILM

[Nickolay V. Shmyrev]

Hello Fernando

This is a bug caused by updates in SRILM 1.7.1, it introduced zlib dependency. You have the following options:

1) Use SRILM 1.7.0 instead

2) In t3/Makefile change the following line

SRILM_LIBS=-L$(SRILM_LIB) -loolm -lmisc -ldstruct

to

SRILM_LIBS=-L$(SRILM_LIB) -loolm -lmisc -ldstruct -lz
