Issue installing OCR integration in spectacle
Hello, I'm attempting to install this particular code from github
https://github.com/funinkina/spectacle-ocr-screenshot
It is meant to make it so that you can take a screenshot using spectacle and automatically perform OCR on it, outputting a small popup text window.
I'm recently migrated from windows 10, and am attempting to copy a similar functionality I used very often.
I'm specifically stuck on actually getting it to run, getting the following error :
I had many issues trying to get it to this part, including using distrobox to install tesseract and the other requirements, but I had a lot of help and am generally lost on how to search for what to try next.

Solution
youll need to layer tesseract probably, for alternative you can try "Frog" in flathub, its not as seamless but works well for me
