            Bug ID: 527649
           Summary: Make OCR/Tesseract optional dependency for Spectacle
    Classification: Applications
           Product: Spectacle
      Version First unspecified
       Reported In:
          Platform: unspecified
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: General

  Target Milestone: ---

DESCRIPTION
Tesseract adds roughly a footprint of ~150-650MB expanded/100-450MB archived as
package, depending on the needed features. Those were measured on MocaccinoOS,
a ready-built Gentoo derived distro.
This increases the packaging of the distro significantly.

Such feature is more practical to be optional, ideally dynamic in a fashion of
plugins, meaning if Tesseract is present at runtime, to be loaded and used
according to its built-in features. If not, the specific features should not be
available in Spectacle.
