Environment

tesseract 5.0.0-alpha-647-g4a00

• Platform: x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Current Behavior:

I installed tesseract version 5.0.0-alpha-647-g4a00 using link given below:

https://notesalexp.org/tesseract-ocr/

It was working perfectly. After then i decided to move back to version 4 to compare benchmarks.

I removed tesseract version 5.0.0-alpha-647-g4a00 using command given below:

sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove tesseract-ocr

I installed tesseract version 4.1 using the same link give above. But when i try to run tesseract command in terminal it fails with following error:

tesseract: symbol lookup error: tesseract: undefined symbol: _ZN9tesseract10SIMDDetect15avx2_available_E

So i removed tesseract version 4.1 again and moved back to 5 alpha version.

Expected Behavior:

tesseract version 4.1 should work without symbol lookup error.
