Package: lios
Version: 2.7.2-5
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: svobod...@gmail.com

Dear Maintainer,

lios 2.7.2-5 (bookworm) reports "Dictionary not found!" during start even
though packages tesseract-ocr-[eng,deu,ces,...] and spellcheck dictionaries
(aspell-*, hunspell-*) are installed. Lios mistakenly expects tesseract
language packs to be installed in /usr/share/tesseract-ocr/tessdata, but in
fact they are located in /usr/share/tesseract-ocr/5/tessdata. As a result of
this bug user cannot choose specific language in Recognition Preferences menu.
As a workaround user can create a softlink /usr/share/tesseract-ocr/tessdata ->
/usr/share/tesseract-ocr/5/tessdata. After creating this softlink, lios detects
installed language packs as expected.

This issue was reported upstream a few years ago, see
https://github.com/zendalona/lios/issues/6.

Best regards,
Lukáš Svoboda
