Description Fredrik Axelsson 2010-07-24 09:52:49 UTC

app-misc/anki can use mecab-python and mecab-ipadic to automatically convert between Kanji and kana characters. It does not work properly unless mecab-ipadic is configured with:

--with-charset=euc-jp

Reproducible: Always

The anki author talks about this issue here:

http://groups.google.com/group/ankisrs/browse_thread/thread/e15f8d4cbd2ed98f

I have verified that this is indeed the case, and that the resolution proposed in my initial comment resolves the problem.
