Public bug reported: I installed ocrfeeder, and then found it in the menu "Office" ("Graphics" was my first guess, but...).
When I invoced it, there was a flash of a window, and then it was gone. I immediately opened a terminal and typed "ocrfeeder", which succeeded. I keep forgetting that I need to invoke it with the terminal... I looked at the .desktop file Properties, and found that it calls: "ocrfeeder -i %f" When I enter that in the terminal, the invocation fails, and the following is printed to stderr: " scott@scott-Asus-M2M68-AM-Plus:~$ ocrfeeder -i %f Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/ocrfeeder", line 36, in <module> studio = Studio() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ocrfeeder/studio/studioBuilder.py", line 133, in __init__ self.__addImagesToReviewer(imgs) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ocrfeeder/studio/studioBuilder.py", line 330, in __addImagesToReviewer self.source_images_controler.addImages(images) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ocrfeeder/studio/widgetModeler.py", line 322, in addImages temp_dir) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ocrfeeder/util/graphics.py", line 213, in convertMultiImagesInList converted_images = convertMultiImage(image_list[i], temp_dir) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ocrfeeder/util/graphics.py", line 187, in convertMultiImage if imghdr.what(image_path) != 'tiff': File "/usr/lib/python2.7/imghdr.py", line 14, in what f = open(file, 'rb') IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '%f' " With just "ocrfeeder", the output is (not counting the correctly opening and functioning window): " scott@scott-Asus-M2M68-AM-Plus:~$ ocrfeeder Processing sheet #1: /tmp/ocrfeeder_QT2bJw/page0030_orig.pnm -> /tmp/ocrfeeder_QT2bJw/page0030.pnm out of deviation range - NO ROTATING (ocrfeeder:2048): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_realize: assertion 'widget->priv->anchored || GTK_IS_INVISIBLE (widget)' failed >>>>>>>> 28 22 1746 959 >>>>>>>> 28 22 1746 959 >>>>>>>> 29 12 1746 959 Processing sheet #1: /tmp/ocrfeeder_QT2bJw/page0031_orig.pnm -> /tmp/ocrfeeder_QT2bJw/page0031.pnm out of deviation range - NO ROTATING (ocrfeeder:2048): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_realize: assertion 'widget->priv->anchored || GTK_IS_INVISIBLE (widget)' failed >>>>>>>> 40 119 1590 1354 >>>>>>>> 40 119 1590 1354 >>>>>>>> 42 109 1590 1354 " (I include this as well, in case the output contains something else you think ought to be looked at...) For my own use, I will remove the "-i %f"from the .desktop file Properties, so I can use the menu entry. I imagine that is what needs to be done to the package file as well.
