Chasen fails to run ("no basic form" message)

the fix in naist-jdic (0.4.3-13) in naist-jdic-utf8.postinst was to add

 if [ -z `grep '(ENCODE "u")' ${chasenrc}-utf8` -a -z `grep '(ENCODE "w")' ${chasenrc}-utf8`]; then
      echo '(ENCODE "u")' >> ${chasenrc}-utf8
    fi

this fails on this version of chasen (there is no ENCODE entry by default, adding (ENCODE "u") manually to the end of /usr/share/chasen/chasenrc-utf8 fixes it though

since its a problem for debian sid too i've contacted the upstream bug to see how they want to tackle it. i'll move this to naist-jdic as thats where the fix seems to be applied. the attached diff seems to fix it but we'll see what upstream says

Ok. Thanks.

Could you tell me in which directory do I have to aplly the patch (it's the
first time I do it).

I know the command to use is patch -p1 < naist-jdic.diff
but I cannot find the directory where that works.

you can use it with the naist-jdic source package but its far easier just to add the option directly to an installed chasen to get it working for the moment.

* edit /usr/share/chasen/chasenrc-utf8 and add (ENCODE "u") to the end of the file

for example,
$echo '(ENCODE "u")' | sudo tee -a /usr/share/chasen/chasenrc-utf8

I've got it working perfectly.

Thanks so much for your help.

Binary package hint: chasen

I have just installed Chasen, but I cannot make it run.

The error message is the following:
"chasen: /var/lib/chasen/dic/debian/cforms.cha:9-21: no basic form"

My Chasen version is 2.4.4-5, and my naist-jdic version is Versión: 0.4.3-6.

I've seen this bug was reported in Debian (557287), but it's already closed (and I think that whithout having been solved).

Cheers,
