@dkasak,

wordnet-common currently includes the database, library, and a bunch of manual pages.

It sounds like we need to move the dictionary (/usr/share/wordnet/dict) out of wordnet-common into a wordnet-dict-princeton package that provides wordnet-dict. Would that work for you?

I just added english-wordnet, which is a fork of the Princeton WordNet that is currently more actively maintained. They recently made the 2019 release and provide an archive with WordNet-compatible files.

I put wordnet-common in my package's provides field, but it currently won't work seamlessly if someone has wordnet-* installed because it is the name of the actual package and therefore I cannot also conflict on it.

It would be nice if this worked seamlessly so both databases could be used with wordnet-cli, wordnet-tk and others. Maybe wordnet-common could be made into a virtual package and the current package renamed to something like princeton-wordnet.

Thoughts?

doronbehar: I agree. I've split the package.

I think tk should be marked as an optional dependency and a make dependency but not a must runtime dependency. Only for the wnb and wishnm executables need GUI and therefor require tk.

@mergen that looks like a bug in tk (reported https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/58361). You can work around it by:

  1. Updating.
  2. Rebuilding tk.

(or wait for the bug to be fixed)

Hello,

I receive the fallowing error:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lieee

I found this. Seemingly, a dependency is missing.

respiranto: done. Thanks for catching that.

Please quote $srcdir and $pkgdir.

@donpicoro done.

Hello, artha doesn't compile anymore. Unless one compiles WordNet using ./configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man CFLAGS=-fPIC CXXFLAGS=-fPIC instead of just ./configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man If it's all the same to you, could you please add it ;-) Cheers.
