Reason for closing: Upstream
Additional comments about closing: The game works fine when launched with /usr/bin/tesseract-game. Changing /usr/bin/tesseract-client would be a feature request/bug request for upstream.

No idea if it's relevant, but do you have any of the data packages installed?

nope; its just a fresh install of tesseract

That's likely your problem then, pacman told you you needed to install it but you ignored it.

i don't see any `data` packages in the deps in PKGBUILD

There are dozens of them, in the optional deps. Closing this.

I think Doug closed this bug overhasty. I experience the same problem. This bug is about the package tesseract-game NOT tesseract. The latter has no optional dependencies, therefore they cannot be installed as a "solution".

I guess that's what happens when people only partially fill out a bug report.

So you can close this now. I was trying to launch run tesseract-client when I should have been running tesseract-game.

Not quite. tesseract-client should also find its textures. If you launch the binary with working dir /usr/share/tesseract-game it works. But this shoudld be configured somewhere so that the binary can be launched from evrywhere.

If you are not happy with running /usr/bin/tesseract-game (or starting the game from the menu in a DE), but also want /usr/bin/tesseract-client to find the textures, it has to be reported upstream, so that they can change the code in tesseract-client to respect an environment variable like TESS_DATA.
