You must have the XDG_DATA_HOME variable set otherwise this program will not run!

Setting export XDG_DATA_HOME="$HOME/.local/share" in ~/.profile (and restarting) did not work for me and still gave me the KeyError: 'XDG_DATA_HOME' error message.

Setting export XDG_DATA_HOME="$HOME/.local/share" in /etc/profile worked

or

setting XDG_DATA_HOME DEFAULT=@{HOME}/.local/share in /etc/security/pam_env.conf/ also worked.

Thank you I added that. Does not work but I suppose I have to reboot my computer for that. Since I am unable for the next days I will get back on this whenever I will reboot.

@Rabblerouser: Oops. However, notice the pinned comment. ;)

@yochananmarqos You're giving him the wrong variable to set. He needs data, not config.

@Tio Add this into ~/.profile (per user) or /etc/profile (system-wide):

   export XDG_DATA_HOME="$HOME/.local/share"

I set that and it works for me now.

I rebooted the system but the app still doesnt start:

Thanks! I suppose I'd have to restart the system to take effect?

@Tio: Add the following to your ~/.profile (per user) or /etc/profile (system-wide):

export XDG_CONFIG_HOME="$HOME/.config"

@yochananmarqos That linked wiki is massive. Is there a quick way to set that variable or is it more complex? I was curious to test this package.

@demolg: You need a Tesseract language pack installed like tesseract-data-eng.
