RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:

Customer would like Red Hat to package and provide the Tesseract libraries and application with RHEL. Searching the RHEL packages for tesseract does not return anything

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

Tesseract 4 https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract

How reproducible:

searching the modules and packages for RHEL 8 for tesseract on the portal does not return anything.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Go to the download page for RHEL 8 in the portal
2. select modules or packages (both return the same results)
3. search for either libtesseract or tesseract


Actual results:

nothing is returned

Expected results:

packages for libtesseract and the tesseract cli tool should be listed

Additional info:

I tested tesseract 4.1.1-2.el8 using our (RHEL Desktop QE) new set of autotests.
See the results:
