Windows 10 install error

[thilakshiK]

I got the following error when I tried to install sacrebleu in windows 10. I have also installed Microsoft Visual C++ 14.0. I'd appreciate if anybody could help me with this.

I'm using,

• Python 3.6

• Anaconda3 v4.8.3

Error message :

can you install mecab-python3 on its own i.e. what happens if you run pip install mecab-python3 ?

[ozancaglayan]

Ok this is related to #107

[thilakshiK]

@ozancaglayan Thanks a lot

[ozancaglayan]

I think we should do a new release @mjpost @martinpopel ASAP as dependency on mecab broke Windows installations for fairseq and OpenNMT at least.

[martinpopel]

I think only @mjpost can upload a new release to PyPI.

[mjpost]

If you two share your pypi IDs with me, I can grant you access. It would be good for me to not be the bottleneck here.

[ozancaglayan]

@thilakshiK can you try installing the new version using pip?

[thilakshiK]

@ozancaglayan It's working 😀
