Why do you set TESSDATA_PREFIX at all? Normally it should not be necessary for users to set it. And indeed it works on my Mac without any problem when no TESSDATA_PREFIX is set. And why do you think this is an issue for the tesseract repository although you are using Homebrew? Please use the Tesseract user forum for questions. |

Current Behavior
After an update, tesseract cannot find the language files anymore, because the path where TESSDATA_PREFIX changes after every update, so I have to change TESSDATA_PREFIX every time.
Now it is
/opt/homebrew/Cellar/tesseract/5.4.1and tomorrow/opt/homebrew/Cellar/tesseract/5.4.2which is very annoying.Expected Behavior
The TESSDATA_PREFIX environmental variable should not contain a version number.
Suggested Fix
No version number in the TESSDATA_PREFIX path.
tesseract -v
