Hum... not in Debian and many other distributions, look: http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/t/tesseract/ Individual .deb files display package architecture and version. >>> - Do You install all the repos on Your computer? >> >>Hum... I'm not sure what repos are you referring to (backports, Ubuntu >>launchpad...)? > > No, Debian repos: stable, backports, testing, sid... Ah, then no. In my computers I only have defined "main/contrib/non-free" the "update" repo and in servers I also add "volatile" (or the new one that replaces it), but no more. Should I need anything else coming from a third-party repo I would manually add it, install whatever I need and afterwards, remove it. >>I would not mix Ubuntu packages into a Debian installation.

Did you try to compile tesseract for your Debian version? You can do that on the virtual machine, just to see how it goes :-? >>Ah, I've seen that you already posted into backports mailing list.
