What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Follow ALMOST exact steps at
https://code.google.com/p/python-tesseract/wiki/HowToCompile for Trusty
2. There is no config.py so I skipped that step??!!
3.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected to be able to import tesseract but upon doing an import I get
ubuntu@ip-10-31-38-163:~/python-tesseract/test-slim$ python test.py
Traceback (most recent call last):

I tried editing setup.py with USE_CV=False which then allows me to import
tesseract without issues. I can even run the test-slim/test.py. HOWEVER, I
then get an error when trying to use tesseract.SetCvImage().
I saw a similar issue someone was having on raspberry pi but don't think it
ever got resolved. Any help is greatly appreciated!
