Maybe is a bit too late for a reply, but in case you did'nt solve your problem (and in case someone else is looking for a solution) try this:
after installing leptonica: - make sure you ran "sudo ldconfig" after your "sudo make install" - check which is the last Leptonica headers directory that has been created and assure that contains allheaders.h ls -l $(find /usr/ -name allheaders.h|grep leptonica) - find the library symlink which points to the installed version of leptonica (there can be more than one, in different path, especially if you previously installed one of the libleptonica package) ls -l $(find /usr/ -name liblept.so) - Configure and install tesseract specifying the correct leptonica headers and library directory: ./autogen.sh CPPFLAGS="-I*HEADER_DIR***" LDFLAGS="-L*LIB_DIR*" ./configure (for example CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib" ./configure) sudo make install sudo ldconfig mik On Friday, 21 September 2012 22:08:51 UTC+1, Osman Masood wrote: > > Hello everyone, > I'm trying to install leptonica 1.69 and Tesseract v3.01 using the exact > instructions found in their respective README files.
