From 339252c3a19ff1eda1141b308ed2cc9980525860 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: James Gates Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2021 13:47:23 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] Modyfied install steps with notes that worked for me. Thanks for the porject, everyone. I just went through the install process and thought maybe the mac directions could use a tiny bit of clarification. I'm by no means familiar enough with the project to know if this is the best way to convey my experience but I figured I'd give it a shot and maybe it will help someone in the future. --- README.md | 6 ++++++ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+) diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 365aef70..0d0cfa7e 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -116,9 +116,15 @@ Then to install the C library: ``` git clone https://github.com/openvenues/libpostal cd libpostal + +# skip if installing for the first time make distclean + ./bootstrap.sh + +# omit --datadir flag to install data in current directory ./configure --datadir=[...some dir with a few GB of space...] + make -j4 sudo make install
