[SRILM User List] problem installing ubuntu 11.10

[Xichuan Wu]

Hi Simon,

I made it recently on Ubuntu 11.10. Here is a suggestion can follow:
1. In this file /common/Makefile.machine.$MACHINE_TYPE, change
GCC_FLAGS = -march=athlon64 -m64 -Wall -Wno-unused-variable
-Wno-uninitialized
to
GCC_FLAGS = -march=athlon64 -m64 -Wall -Wno-unused-variable
-Wno-uninitialized -fPIC
then, run with command: make MAKE_PIC=yes MACHINE_TYPE=$MACHINE_TYPE World
Note that 1) here $MACHINE_TYPE refers to your machine type (you can try
either "i686-m64" or "i686-ubuntu"); 2) before the make command, you might
need to use "make clean" to clean what's left from previous compile.
2. consult "Joshua technical support" googlegroup and you will find more
info.
Good luck!
