mecab-ipadic and mecab-ipadic-utf8 for Debian
---------------------------------------------

mecab-ipadic and mecab-ipadic-utf8 are dictionaries for mecab which performs
the morphological analysis of Japanese texts.  
 * mecab-ipadic for the EUC-JP encoded text.
 * mecab-ipadic-utf8 for the UTF-8 encoded text.

These packages can coexist with other dictionaries.
 * mecab-naist-jdic
 * mecab-naist-jdic-eucjp
 * mecab-jumandic
 * mecab-jumandic-utf8

Since naist-jdic is based on ipadic with some updated contents, naist-jdic has
the precedence over ipadic for the update-alternatives system.  ipadic still
has good reasons to exist since it has a better data consistency.

You can find more information at http://code.google.com/p/mecab/

You can switch default dictionary to mecab-ipadic in UTF-8 mode by:

$ sudo update-alternatives --config mecab-dictionary

You can also force resource file to use ipadic in UTF-8 mode by:

$  mecab -r /var/lib/mecab/dic/ipadic-utf8 ...

or edit /etc/mecabrc to select the resource file. See mecab(8).

NOTE:
This mecab-ipadic package was originally uploaded to the non-free area
following the precedent of ipadic.  After careful review, the new ipadic
maintainer posted the package should be treated as DFSG compliant to the
debian-legal.  http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2011/09/msg00010.html and
uploaded it to the main area.  It was accepted.  This mecab-ipadic package
follows this new precedent.
