CRAN incoming feasibility: Two URLs redirect from http to https (www.r-pkg.org and www.rcpp.org). Both respond with 200.
-
Installed package size (330 Mb): The package bundles a MeCab dictionary (~325 Mb) at install time so that users do not need to install MeCab or dictionaries separately. The dictionary is required for the package to function.
-
Future file timestamps: "unable to verify current time" — local environment issue, not package-related.
-
DESCRIPTION meta-information: Author field differs from Authors@R because Authors@R includes a contributor (Akiru Kato) not listed in the plain Author field. Will be harmonised in a future release.
-
Non-portable compilation flag (
-mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer): This flag comes from the system R installation (Ubuntu 24.04), not from the package itself. The package does not set this flag.
This is a major update from the last CRAN version (0.0.1.2):
- MeCab is now built from source at install time on all platforms (Linux, macOS, Windows). No system-level MeCab installation required.
- Dictionaries are automatically downloaded and bundled during install.
- New
download_dic()/set_dic()/list_dic()functions for managing multiple language dictionaries entirely within R. - New
langparameter onpos()andposParallel()for per-call language selection (e.g.pos("text", lang = "ja")). - New
dict_index()function to compile user dictionaries from R. - mecab-ko 0.999 support (Korean).
- Windows build now compiles MeCab from source instead of using pre-built DLLs.
None. This package has no reverse dependencies on CRAN.
