To install FreeLing you'll need:
Note that you'll need both the binary libraries and their source headers (in some distributions the headers come in a separate package tagged -devel or -dev, e.g. the libpcre library may be distributed in two packages: the first, say libpcre-4.3.rpm, contains the binary libraries, and the second, say libpcre-devel-4.3.rpm, provides the source headers)
Note also that if you (or the library package) install those libraries or headers in non-standard directories (that is, other than /usr/lib or /usr/local/lib for libraries, or other than /usr/include or /usr/local/include for headers) you may need to use the CPPFLAGS or LDFLAGS variables to properly run ./configure script.
For instance, if you installed BerkeleyDB from a rpm
package, the db_cxx.h header file may be located at /usr/include/db4 instead of the default /usr/include. So,
if ./configure complains about not finding the library
header, you'll have to specify where to find it:
./configure CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/include/db4'
The BerkeleyDB package is probably installed in your system, but you may need to install C++ support, which (depending on your distribution) may be found in a separate package (such as db4-cxx.rpm, db4-cxx-devel.rpm, or the like).
See next section and INSTALL file for further details.
