Description Timo Rothenpieler 2017-06-28 09:05:47 UTC 
ffmpeg supports ocr via app-text/tesseract

It would be nice if a useflag, possibly called ocr or tesseract, which both already exist on some packages, would be added for it.

It exists at least since ffmpeg 3.2.
Comment 1 Alexis Ballier gentoo-dev 2019-08-22 13:39:30 UTC 
app-text/tesseract needs to have multilib support for this

Comment 2 Bernard Cafarelli gentoo-dev 2019-08-26 10:37:04 UTC 
leptonica (and other dependencies) already supported multilib, so it was not too complicated to add support in tesseract.
