Known issues

breakingPolyglot requires ICU (pyicu) and CLD2 (pycld2) to be installed. Without them, imports fail or produce cryptic errors.

fix

Install system packages: libicu-dev, libcld2-dev; then pip install pyicu pycld2.

affects: all

gotchaText object's .words, .sentences, .entities are lazy and may raise if downloaded models are missing. Run polyglot.downloader to get required models.

fix

Run: python -m polyglot download embeds en

affects: all

deprecatedSentiment analysis using the Text.sentiment attribute is deprecated in favor of using the explicit polyglot.sentiment module.

fix

Use polyglot.sentiment.SentimentAnalyzer instead.

affects: >=16.0.0
