just downloaded the specific language data from

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tessdata
https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/langdata

copied in a <temp>/usr/share/tessdata
and packaged.

Making a source file was a waste of space as it will be a duplication
of the binary.


In theory I could do a noarch tesseract-ocr-language.cygport
that skips build and for install just copies the data from
the git and than packages the whole.
I doubt that cygport accept an empty SRC_URI, but I have not yet tested it
