However, there is a small problem with the /usr/share/tessdata files provided with the rpm. They are all empty: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.DangAmbigs -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.freq-dawg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.inttemp -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.normproto -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.pffmtable -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.unicharset -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.user-words -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 0 2008-05-03 20:05 deu.word-dawg <snip> I don't know why? I simply downloaded the source files and copied the english modules over and everything else works fine: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 392 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.DangAmbigs -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 672 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.freq-dawg -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 862544 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.inttemp -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 39862 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.normproto -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 590 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.pffmtable -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 480 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.unicharset -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7289 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.user-words -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 809728 2009-02-14 00:42 eng.word-dawg The source files I used were from: http://tesseract-ocr.googlecode.com/files/tesseract-2.00.eng.tar.gz I bet you just need to place the /tessdata language files in the /tesseract directory before creating the source file to build the rpm and that should take care of it. Thanks again. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/StefanBruens:/OCR/openSUSE_1... 2. run tesseract 3.
