Installed because of https://discuss.kde.org/t/ocr-in-kde-image-viewers-editors/5651/5?u=rokejulianlockhart, and expected to be able to use it as https://store.kde.org/p/1800609 depicts after installation. However, the option in the context menu doesn't appear

thank you for giving it a try ... can you please confirm that tesseract(1) is installed alongside by checking this via

type -p tesseract

in a terminal?

@c-hartmann, I didn't realize that I would need to manually install it. Apologies. I don't know how I missed it in https://github.com/c-hartmann/read-it?tab=readme-ov-file#requirements. Perhaps others as smooth-brained as I shall locate this issue the next time they attempt to do the same thing!

...However, that command regardless doesn't work:

type -p tesseract # https://bash.cyberciti.biz/guide/Logical_Not_!
sudo zypper install -y tesseract && type -p tesseract

nor does the plugin.

c-hartmann commented 1 year ago

from all in know ... type is an internal command of bash and might be hashed (cached) somehow. if so, the command type would not immidiatly know the complete path to tesseract command right after installation. for KDE this might be the same reasoning .. actualy KDE (i.e. Plasma) does not make use of a user ($) PATH .. it just uses the default system wide (by default - there are was to circumvent this ... another story)

said all that ... a reboot or logout/login could fix it

c-hartmann commented 1 year ago

i'm not experienced with openSUSE, but to me it looks like the packe name is tesseract-ocr, that will do the trick

RokeJulianLockhart commented 1 year ago

@c-hartmann,

  1. https://github.com/c-hartmann/read-it/issues/1#issuecomment-1743486631

    systemctl reboot

  2. https://github.com/c-hartmann/read-it/issues/1#issuecomment-1744403931

    RokeJulianLockhart@s1e8h4:~> bash -c 'type -p tesseract-ocr'
RokeJulianLockhart@s1e8h4:~>

Nothing seems to work.

c-hartmann commented 1 year ago

tesseract-ocr is the package name to install with zypper: sudo zypper install tesseract-ocr

to get the command tesseract: /usr/bin/tesseract

note: sudo zypper install tesseract install a game, that unfortunately has the same name

RokeJulianLockhart commented 1 year ago

Oh, yeah...

Sorry, I think I need to sleep a little more. XD

It works perfectly now.
