As there now seems to be a new maintainer, I will just post my updated PKGBUILD file here:

I just send an e-mail to the maintainer and suggested some changes to the PKGBUILD file. Let's hope he/she sees it.

Speaking of pkgver(), this package fails to build now because the default branch was renamed from master to main (sigh). Changing master to HEAD in pkgver() fixes the issue.

This pkgbuild, like all your other VCS pkgbuilds, don't have a proper pkgver(), see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#Git

iamdrrot: thank you, I added the dependency.

ran into an issue building on a fresh system. autoconf-archive is an build dep.

tesseract-svn merged into tesseract-git

For anyone here getting issues with this compiling, specifically when using it with the Tesseract-OCR ruby gem, it's beceause there were changes on the svn repo which messes things up. https://code.google.com/p/python-tesseract/issues/detail?id=63 "Don't use the svn version right now. zdenko makes some changes in the svn version which is a bit tricky to wrap." So I assume we can only wait.

build and package need to be updated according to https://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/wiki/TesseractSvnInstallation . Relevant changes below. build: ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/usr make package: {*.traineddata,*cube.*} Note that 3.02 seems to explode the size — it grew threefold!

stativ commented on 2011-11-17 12:18 (UTC)

Thanks, fixed. I've also added installation of trained data which was missing in the the previous PKGBUILD.
