Hello, FWIW I made a backport to jessie too. It required backports of utf8proc and tesseract to build. But at runtime you only need the backported libutf8proc2.
Here are the full packages: $ dget https://people.debian.org/~hertzog/packages/utf8proc_2.0.2-1~bpo8+1_amd64.changes $ dget https://people.debian.org/~hertzog/packages/tesseract_3.04.01-5~bpo8+1_amd64.changes $ dget https://people.debian.org/~hertzog/packages/ccextractor_0.86+ds1-1~bpo8+1_amd64.changes And here are direct links to the only .deb required for installation on jessie: https://people.debian.org/~hertzog/packages/ccextractor_0.86+ds1-1~bpo8+1_amd64.deb https://people.debian.org/~hertzog/packages/libutf8proc2_2.0.2-1~bpo8+1_amd64.deb Cheers, -- Raphaël Hertzog ◈ Debian Developer Support Debian LTS: https://www.freexian.com/services/debian-lts.html Learn to master Debian: https://debian-handbook.info/get/
