python package is required in makedepends array. Its absence causes build to fail in a clean chroot enviroment.

@ap_qld artha builds fine for me, dico will as well once they update the configure flags

if you find conflicts with wordnet-tk and wordnet-cli just remove them as this now a unified package

Unfortunately, I really just don't have time to maintain/fix this package. To future packagers: you'll probably want to pull sources from debian directly and ignore upstream.

@ap_qld it builds just fine but it looks like artha may be relying on some debian special sauce (they have a ton of patches in https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/wordnet/-/tree/master/debian?ref_type=heads). The wordnet-common package only includes a static library and a header file, no pkgconf files or shared libraries which artha appears to be looking for.

Honestly, this package is an unmaintained mess. I'll have to switch to Debian as upstream.

There seems to be a problem with wordnet-common as the 'Required by' packages artha and dico do not build - more info in artha package.

Stebalien commented on 2024-01-22 22:20 (UTC)

The split is to avoid the tk dependency in the CLI package. That and others may just want the data.

I think I'll leave it as it is for now as it should just work.

Stebalien commented on 2024-01-22 20:02 (UTC)

You're right about the conflicts, but I don't think I can reasonably add "provides" to wordnet-common as it doesn't provide what the old wordnet package provided. I've left off provides entirely for now.
