Thanks for that, I will fix the website. The URL for the downloads is here: https://github.com/rosarior/mayan/tags. There were many problems with the 2.x versions of tesseract, the recommended version for use with Mayan is 3.x. There is also tighter error checking (https://github.com/rosarior/mayan/blob/hotfix/v0.12.3/apps/installation/models.py#L87) in the next maintenance release (0.12.3) for this situation. I'll see where I can add a warning message if the detected tesseract version is not 3.x or greater. Sorry you got hit by this shortcoming, the next maintenance version should be out soon. Try this unofficial deb repository: http://notesalexp.net/ is the one I used before Ubuntu finally included tesseract 3.02.
