Good news, the new tesseract has now entered Debian testing.

Sikuli is good to go. See version 1.0~x~rc3.tesseract3-dfsg1-1 in Debian
Unstable. It is still waiting to enter Debian testing.

Ocropus is broken in Debian, it can neither build nor run. This will
not change until upstream completes a major rewrite.

ahead.

If I am reading the bug reports correctly, the current Ubuntu ocropus
is working, but is obsolete as per Debian and Ubuntu bug reports and 
upstream commentary.

This really does look like a (new) Tesseract vs (old) Ocropus
tradeoff. There are a stack of people peering over my shoulder
muttering about why the former is more important, let me know if
you would like to hear from them.
