Installing CMU Sphinx

Hi there,

I wonder if I can instal CMU Shinx(https://cmusphinx.github.io/), an open source speexh recognition toolkit. There is python module that interacts with it named SpeechRecognition (https://pypi.org/project/SpeechRecognition/) and I would like to do some development with it.

We have the Ubuntu packages for it pre-installed, so you might be able to use it straight out of the box:

$ dpkg -l | grep sphinx
ii  libjs-sphinxdoc                       1.3.6-2ubuntu1.2                          all          JavaScript support for Sphinx documentation
ii  libsphinxbase-dev:amd64               0.8+5prealpha-2ubuntu1                    amd64        Speech recognition tool - development files
ii  libsphinxbase3:amd64                  0.8+5prealpha-2ubuntu1                    amd64        Speech recognition tool - shared library
