OT: need help installing FuzzyOCR

Update... well...

"giflib seems to be libungif" and "libungif seems to be giflib".

Just worked out why... "giftext" and so on are missing from Fedora5... the rpms are only installing 3 library files.

So it is off to http://sourceforge.net/projects/libungif to do it all from scratch without RPM.

rpm -ql giflib-devel-4.1.3-6.2.1

I have no answers... as I am doing the same thing at this precise moment... based on  http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/FuzzyOcrPlugin

Being Fedora5 my ImageMigick is... ImageMagick-6.2.5.4-4.2.1.fc5.6.i386.rpm

My system already has: giftopnm, jpegtopnm and pngtopnm (from netpbm) and  imagemagick

But I am having to hunt down "gocr" from http://jocr.sourceforge.net/ .

"giffix" and "giftext" should exist on my system... as I have giflib-4.1.3-6.2.1 on it... but they are not there!  So I will have to see if they have changed name... or been missed out... or I am being a cabbage.

More laters...
