Hi Shree Sorry for the delay in replying but I'm struggling to get a successful build now. I'm attaching my shell script for you to look at but the failure seems to be related to aclocal being called inside autogen.sh.
To be honest I'm not confident that things are building OK elsewhere as I see a variety of error and warning messages appear even though the relevant script finishes with "success"! I'm not a C/C+ etc coder, I do all my programming using LiveCode. I'm just trying to get a reliable build of a portable version of Tesseract that I can drive through a command-line interface. The OCR capability I'm trying to provide using Tesseract is just a part of a much larger app. LiveCode allows me to build an app on my Mac to be deployed on Mac, Windows & Linux. In each case the only code I need for each target deployment is a command line or two that runs Tesseract with a given set of source files that my app has extracted/created elsewhere. In order to make installation easy I include a portable version of Tesseract amongst the resources for my app. As I'm not a C etc. coder (I last wrote serious C several decades ago!) I'm not able to judge which error/warning messages are significant or figure out how to fix them. I was hoping to follow a recipe that would reliably build a portable Tesseract for the Mac and Windows. I'm just trying different combinations of sub-builds until I find one that works, which is why I ended up with a combination of older versions of the dependencies. So I'm not a good person to ask to build this and report errors etc!
