Dear Sergio, dear list,
Aida and I think we have found a bug in the t1x processor and we have
chased it down to a single file containing only the definitions necessary
and a single rule. Unfortunately, it has to be tested by installing
apertium-eng-kaz (following the steps here:
http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/English_and_Kazakh (hfst and all!, sorry).
How to test the (possible) bug: install apertium-eng-kaz, then replace
apertium-eng-kaz.kaz-eng.t1x with the file with the same name in the dev/
directory, compile, and run this test:
echo "жазғанмын" | apertium -d. kaz-eng-transfer
The output should be:
apertium-transfer: Rule 1 жаз<v><tv><past><p1><sg>/
write<vblex><past><p1><sg>/record<vblex><past><p1><sg>
^+++ HELLO, I AM THE WRONG RULE! +++ The following should be <ND> or
<zzz>:<sg>$^default<default>{^.<sent>$}
If you look at the rule, first the value <ND> to the number clip is
assigned and then there is a <choose> block that tests for 1st person and
assigns <zzz> to the number clip. None of these two values are printed;
instead, the value extracted from жаз<v><tv><past><p1><sg> is printed,
namely <sg>.
We also saw some other strange behavior, but this was the easiest to
reproduce.
Basically, assignments to clips are overriden and the values obtained in
previous assignments seem to prevail.
We would appreciate it very much if someone could look into this bug.
All the best
Mikel
P.S. Another behaviour we observed is that under some circumstances you
cannot assign values to clips outside their definition range, but we
haven't been able to isolate the problem.
