I have used tesseract over several versions with Kubuntu. I just did an upgrade to Kubuntu 10.10 and installed tesseract from the repositories. I immediately ran into a well documented bug. The solution was to go to tesseract 3.0. I downloaded the zip file and followed the compile/install directions. All seemed to go well except the first execution ended with
tesseract: error while loading shared libraries: libtesseract_api.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I checked the directories and the tesseract executable modules are in /usr/local/bin and the various tesseract libraries are in /usr/local/lib The error lib is a soft link to the full library in the same directory. Both these directories are in the PATH statement. I am not an expert developer, I can stumble around some, so I'm not sure how to resolve this issue. Does anyone have a suggestion? PS: I joined the Google group for tesseract-ocr and entered a question about this. It was directed to the moderators and I haven't seen anything since. That was early yesterday. -- An old mainframer getting current
