QUEX_PATH issue while using tokenizer


I'm trying to install trainable-tokenizer. I have installed all the dependencies as per the README. this is trainable-tokenizer https://github.com/jirkamarsik/trainable-tokenizer. i have installed quex.deb using installer from quex.org which is a dependency for trainable-tokenizer.

when i try to do sudo make install i get the following error

ThinkPad-T430:~/tmp/OpenFST/tokenizer/trainable-tokenizer/src$ sudo make install 
[  6%] Building FeaturesReader with quex
Environment variable QUEX_PATH has not been defined.
error: environment variable 'QUEX_PATH' is not defined.
error: your system is 'posix'.
error: if you are using bash-shell, append the following line
error: to your '~/.bashrc' file:
error:
error: export QUEX_PATH=directory-where-quex-has-been-installed
make[2]: *** [quex_files/trtok_read_features_FeaturesReader] Error 255
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/trtok.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

but i have already set up the QUEX_PATH.

ThinkPad-T430:~/tmp/OpenFST/tokenizer/trainable-tokenizer/src$ echo $QUEX_PATH 
/opt/quex/quex-0.65.4/
ThinkPad-T430:~/tmp/OpenFST/tokenizer/trainable-tokenizer/src$ ll /opt/quex/quex-0.65.4/

i also added export QUEX_PATH=/opt/quex/quex-0.65.4/ to the .bashrc

ThinkPad-T430:~/tmp/OpenFST/tokenizer/trainable-tokenizer/src$ vim ~/.bashrc
ThinkPad-T430:~/tmp/OpenFST/tokenizer/trainable-tokenizer/src$ echo $QUEX_PATH 
/opt/quex/quex-0.65.4/
ThinkPad-T430:~/tmp/OpenFST/tokenizer/trainable-tokenizer/src$ sudo make install
[  6%] Building FeaturesReader with quex
Environment variable QUEX_PATH has not been defined.
error: environment variable 'QUEX_PATH' is not defined.
error: your system is 'posix'.

but still i get the same error.


Solution

  • I fixed the issue using the -I flag. I had to use quex -I.
