[Student-projects] Queries regarding libindic project

[Jerin Philip]

Thanks for the response. I figured problem is actually with git
submodule and the pbr packaging system[1]. After passing through
werkezaug, the flask app crashes with a 500 error since its unable to
find the required jquery.ime module.

I'm posting temporary fix to this thread, so others don't have to
waste their time on the same. The solution involves: manually git
update the submodule, and copy the jquery.ime folder to the silpa
module installed in /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/. A shellscript,
with explanations in comments tested on my system is given in [2].

Since the problem is not directly related to silpa, I leave it to the
maintainers whether to open an issue for this or not.

Thanks.
