Failed tests

[tnorth]

Hi again,

Some tests fail for me (fedora 16), with tesseract-ocr 3.00 probably because the version is not up to date (3.01), and also for cuneiform 1.1.0, for some reason. Looks like 1.1.0 is the latest one.

Here is the output related to cuneiform:

$ python run_tests.py 
- OCR: Tesseract
  is_available(): True
  get_version(): (3, 0, 0)

For Tesseract, if the version doesn't match exactly the one used to write the tests, this result is to be expected. Anyway, as far as I know, Tesseract 3.00 should work fine, even if the tests don't pass, so no worry here. In case you plan on sending a patch or writing new tests, I think you will have to install Tesseract 3.01 from its source ( http://code.google.com/p/tesseract-ocr/ )

For Cuneiform, it's a bit more curious. It seems we have the same version, and the tests pass correctly on my end. I think the problem is basically we are not using the same Linux distribution (I'm using Debian testing), so there may some patchs included in one version and not in the other. Also the training data may be slightly different.

By the way, for Cuneiform, I wouldn't worry too much either. Test results show that it worked. It's just the result is slightly different (and slightly less good) than the one expected by the tests.

Ok, thanks for looking into it. Indeed, it works.
