Jeff, thanks for contacting me, it is much appreciated!
We agreed on marking the tests failing on big-endian XFAIL as a
short-term solution.
Sean, I'm not sure if you want to include this in the Debian packaging
of ocrmypdf as well, but here [1] it is.

Great to see the most recent test run passed, even if it is with liberal
application of "expect failure". The Canonical powers that be should be
appeased for the moment. I appreciate the last minute effort to get this,
and Tesseract, into the next Ubuntu.
In this case the Canonical power was Britney, and she can be a harsh
mistress, but she was appeased, and ocrmypdf is marked for release in
Bionic Beaver [2].
Thinking about the failures, I suspect that the endian issues are now
within Tesseract not Leptonica.
I agree, and with the upload of leptonlib 1.75.3-4, the tests are now
run during the build [3], and failure here will result in a failed
build. Builds of leptonlib were successful on all architectures [4]
except sparc64, which is notoriously sensitive to unaligned memory access.
