Facepalm. To be honest, the failure here us more mine, for expecting any sort of Linux experience from you, but I am a little dismayed that you would run a command with root privileges without so much as a basic check of what it should do first - what if I'd just given you a command to format your hard disk? There's nothing to wait for; Tesseract should now run without that error, because you have updated the shared library loader - any time you install software from source on Linux, it's the first command to try if the software doesn't work. -- <Leftmost> jimregan, that's because deep inside you, you are evil. <Leftmost> Also not-so-deep inside you. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tesseract-ocr" group.
