Step 3:
tar xvf 4.1.1.tar.gz cd tesseract-4.1.1 export LIBLEPT_HEADERSDIR=/usr/local/include/leptonica export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig
Step 4:
./autogen.sh
Result:
[root@tutorialspots tesseract-4.1.1]# ./autogen.sh Running aclocal Running /usr/bin/libtoolize libtoolize: putting auxiliary files in AC_CONFIG_AUX_DIR, `config'. libtoolize: copying file `config/ltmain.sh' libtoolize: putting macros in AC_CONFIG_MACRO_DIR, `m4'. libtoolize: copying file `m4/libtool.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/ltoptions.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/ltsugar.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/ltversion.m4' libtoolize: copying file `m4/lt~obsolete.m4' Running autoconf Running autoheader Running automake --add-missing --copy configure.ac:86: installing 'config/config.guess' configure.ac:86: installing 'config/config.sub' configure.ac:27: installing 'config/install-sh' configure.ac:27: installing 'config/missing' src/api/Makefile.am: installing 'config/depcomp' parallel-tests: installing 'config/test-driver' All done. To build the software now, do something like: $ ./configure [--enable-debug] [...other options]
Step 5:
./configure --prefix= --with-extra-libraries=/usr/local/lib
Result:
... config.status: creating java/Makefile config.status: creating java/com/Makefile config.status: creating java/com/google/Makefile config.status: creating java/com/google/scrollview/Makefile config.status: creating java/com/google/scrollview/events/Makefile config.status: creating java/com/google/scrollview/ui/Makefile config.status: creating doc/Makefile config.status: creating config_auto.h config.status: executing depfiles commands config.status: executing libtool commands Configuration is done. You can now build and install tesseract by running: $ make $ sudo make install $ sudo ldconfig Documentation will not be built because asciidoc or xsltproc is missing. You can not build training tools because of missing dependency. Check configure output for details.
Step 6:
make -j install
Result:
