Today, I've uploaded a new version for Apertium (3.0.7) that solves a few errors that has been blocking a new lang pair. This new pair is en-es. It's still in beta status, but the quality is quite good.
Now, we can see in Debian a lot of pairs:
There are too a graphical user interface for Apertium (apertium-tolk) that is a useful test program for apertium-dbus.
The present for apertium: support txt, html, rtf, odt, docx, wxml and xlsx documents.
The future... more lang pairs (spanish-basque, catalan-romanian, spanish-occitan and catalan-occitan)... integration with OpenOffice and Iceweasel","comments":"https:\/\/xerakko.livejournal.com\/12103.html?view=comments#comments","category":"debian"},{"guid":"https:\/\/xerakko.livejournal.com\/11935.html","pubDate":"Sat, 29 Mar 2008 09:08:30 GMT","title":"I'll be there.","author":"xerakko","link":"https:\/\/xerakko.livejournal.com\/11935.html","description":"

At that moment, I began learning how to install it and how to manage it.
My work:
1.- Download Software<\/a>. My first surprise: Oracle -> 685M, Postgres -> 15,8M
2.- Read Manuals: A lot of them, with a high quality but... I can't find how to install in Debian. Google solves it: Desktop Survival Guide<\/a>. Tricky but works!
3.- Manual database create\/remove\/test\/dump...:
* create\/dump: dbca is a graphical frontend than help to it; the --silent<\/i> parameter let it works without graphical frontend.
* dump: exp works nice. The first test: to dump a complete void database (1 user, 1 table), takes 9 minutes and 12Mb!!!; Postgres -> 9 sec. and 200k for 100 tables\/triggers.
I always hear than Oracle is the best database, but now I'm not to sure.
- The installation is too tricky.
- Create databases is slow (minutes)
- 9 minutes and 12mb to dump a complete void database? Slow!!!!!
- To work correctly you need to manually define 7 environment variables. No comments.
- It needs a big<\/b> server. 500Mb Ram, 1Gb Swap, minimum.
- It's not possible to create a database remotely because it's necessary to create manually directories locally.
I was thinking about create debian packages for the new Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta Release <\/a>, but It will be a lot<\/b> of work. Maybe an alioth project?
About dbconfig-common... It will be probably finished this week, but it will need a lot of test\/verify before release it.","comments":"https:\/\/xerakko.livejournal.com\/6810.html?view=comments#comments","category":"debian"},{"guid":"https:\/\/xerakko.livejournal.com\/6596.html","pubDate":"Sun, 23 Oct 2005 17:19:47 GMT","title":"openoffice.org in Sid","author":"xerakko","link":"https:\/\/xerakko.livejournal.com\/6596.html","description":"Usually Debian seems to be a \"slow\" distribution, new software takes long time to be in Debian.
