Verification

  • My brew doctor output says Your system is ready to brew. and am still able to reproduce my issue.
  • I ran brew update and am still able to reproduce my issue.
  • I have resolved all warnings from brew doctor and that did not fix my problem.
  • I searched for recent similar issues at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues?q=is%3Aissue and found no duplicates.
  • My issue is not about a failure to build a formula from source.

What were you trying to do (and why)?

I installed ocrmypdf and its two main dependencies, i.e., tesseract and tesseract-lang. However, after installing tesseract-lang, besides the original languages that come with tesseract (such as eng) disappear, it failed to work. I was able to work it around by reinstalling tesseract.

What happened (include all command output)?

By running "tesseract --list-langs" you will get this output: ❯ tesseract --list-langs List of available languages in "/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/share/tessdata/" (160): afr amh ara asm aze aze_cyrl bel ben bod bos bre bul cat ceb ces chi_sim chi_sim_vert chi_tra chi_tra_vert chr cos cym dan deu div dzo ell enm epo equ est eus fao fas fil fin fra frk frm fry gla gle glg grc guj hat heb hin hrv hun hye iku ind isl ita ita_old jav jpn jpn_vert kan kat kat_old kaz khm kir kmr kor kor_vert lao lat lav lit ltz mal mar mkd mlt mon mri msa mya nep nld nor oci ori pan pol por pus que ron rus san script/Arabic script/Armenian script/Bengali script/Canadian_Aboriginal script/Cherokee script/Cyrillic script/Devanagari script/Ethiopic script/Fraktur script/Georgian script/Greek script/Gujarati script/Gurmukhi script/HanS script/HanS_vert script/HanT script/HanT_vert script/Hangul script/Hangul_vert script/Hebrew script/Japanese script/Japanese_vert script/Kannada script/Khmer script/Lao script/Latin script/Malayalam script/Myanmar script/Oriya script/Sinhala script/Syriac script/Tamil script/Telugu script/Thaana script/Thai script/Tibetan script/Vietnamese sin slk slv snd spa spa_old sqi srp srp_latn sun swa swe syr tam tat tel tgk tha tir ton tur uig ukr urd uzb uzb_cyrl vie yid yor

What did you expect to happen?

After reinstalling tesseract, you will get the correct output, which in included eng:

Step-by-step reproduction instructions (by running brew commands)

1. To install: brew install ocrmypdf tesseract-lang.

2. The workaround, after ocrmypdf and tesseract-lang installation: brew reinstall tesseract
