Hi everyone,

Moses currently requires installing the Boost libraries with the --layout=tagged option. This library naming scheme has been non-standard on Unix-like systems since Boost 1.40.0. It forces you to use special options when installing Boost, and it can lead to trouble if you then try to link Moses against other software that prefers a standard installation - effectively you have to install Boost twice to make everybody happy.

In my opinion, it would be preferable if Moses used the --layout=system scheme that you get by default in recent versions of Boost. Would anybody object to this?

Best,
Christian

Hi all,

I successfully make a tuning on my domain with two parallel files of 50
sentences each

How can I check if the tuning process do what it should do?

Note: I picked a sentence from the source tuning file and sent it to moses
to translate and it comes in a different translation from the target tuning
file is that normal ?or I miss something in the tuning process

Thanks



Best Regards
