I am going to be using Tesseract OCR on a documentation analysis program is kicking around now. I have not looked at Leptonica but that seems pretty interesting, are these...

That's cool, I hope to give it a whirl at some point, and when I do, I will let you know how it works

That is weird, I have been [using it](https://gitlab.kitware.com/physiology/engine/-/blob/master/cmake/external/External_Eigen3.cmake) with out issue, maybe fletch has an old version of Eigen? No big deal, I thought it would be a quick fix

This works on linux too (I stole the idea from ITK, so I am pretty sure its not an OS thing) Sounds good, keep me posted if you need anything

protobuf3 can read in and use protobuf2 files I have also built protobuf3 in fletch and used that in a Caffe build, which has protobuf2 proto files, and everything still...

Note, I think using the protobuf3 library (even with protobuf2 proto files) we should still get JSON support... But I would want to test that just to be sure...

Protobuf comes in 2 versions, 2 and 3 The last 'release' of 2 is version 2.6.1 - i.e. there is a release tag and is part of their releases on...

I would assume there is no issue moving Protobuf2 from 2.5 to 2.7 Then just update the Protobuf3 version to the latest as needed Protobuf3 should be default for fletch....

So I remembered the wrench that 2.7 has... 2.7 is not a release, its only a branch. So you cannot use a protobuf URL of https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases/download/v2.7.0/protobuf-$2.7.0.tar.bz2 Its just not on...

I don't think protobuf 2 is ever going to change or be updated, 2.7.0 is a dead branch as is Protobuf2 (Latest commit on Jul 26, 2016) So I don't...
