Incoherrent TESSDATA_PREFIX and config placement

Solution to issue cannot be found in the documentation.

Issue

I have created a fresh environment with tessearct==5.3.0 on win64, see installed packages.

I have noticed, that while the *.traineddata are placed in the <envdir>\share\testdata folder, the configs and tessconfigs folders are placed in <envdir>\Library\share\tessdata. The TESSDATA_PREFIX is set to <envdir>\share\tessdata. This results in calls like

 tesseract  tess_5a6u1fl6_input.PNG tess_5a6u1fl6 batch.nochop makebox

will be able to find the traineddata, but not the config files batch.nochop and makebox

I would have expected that there should only be one tessdata folder that contains traineddata and config folders and files so that TESSDATA_PREFIX can correctly point to that location

I think that #67 should fix the issue, but cannot find a download link to the package artifact to test... Any advice on how to test the package?

Could you add a test command like the one above, i.e.:

tesseract  eurotext.tif eurotext batch.nochop makebox

using the included test TIFF file?
