Outdated Leptonica version

It seems you ship Leptonica 1.78 with Tesseract 5.3.0.
If that's indeed true, please upgrade to 1.83.
Thanks.
The Tesseract installer for Windows is built using the latest msys packages.
How do you explain the fact that we got reports from people that downloaded your installer and now have Tesseract 5.3.0 and Leptonica 1.78 according to 'tesseract -v'?
I had to look that up myself because I had forgotton the details of the build process from December.
The Tesseract installer for Windows is built using the latest msys packages.
That's not the full truth. I planned to do so, but had little time when building in December and decided to use the old build environment which uses outdated packages from Cygwin and an old self-compiled package for Leptonica.
So the correct statement should be: The next Tesseract installer for Windows will be built using the latest msys packages.
Yes, you have liblept-5.dll while msys2 has libleptonica-6.dll.
I just finished a new installer for Tesseract 5.3.1 which is now using recent packages for all dependencies.
