No rule to make target 'lex_lookup'

[yohayn]

Hello

I am trying to install lex_lookup, since I wish to convert an English text to API.
I ran Cygwin using Windows 10. I followed the instructions, including changing the "cp -pd" to "cp -pR" in the relevant flite-2.0.5-current\main\Makefile file. However, I cannot manage to run this command - "make lex_lookup".

Thank you very much for your help.

@yohayn I need better information in order to debug your problem. Can you give me the output of just running ./configure? Does make finish successfully? What exact message do you get when you run make lex_lookup? And why are you editing the Makefile? Cygwin should have GNU cp, not BSD cp.

Apologies for the lag in reply time—my GitHub messages were being redirected to the trash. I don't know why your Makefile does not have a lex_lookup target. Are you sure you are using the version of Flite linked in the README (not the most recent one on the Flite website, which does not yet include lex_lookup)?

[dmort27]

Wait, are you doing the following?
$ cd testsuite
$ make lex_lookup

I'm having this same issue. I'm using the same Flite linked in the website. The error is the same after I do:
$ cd testsuite
$ make lex_lookup
in the cygwin console.

Same problem here, it seems to be related to the use of cygwin. I tried to run make lex_lookup on both Window 10 (Cygwin) and Mac OS but it only works in the second case.
