Description

Steps To Reproduce
  1. Use subitem in menu.sh script for installing Full text search platform
Expected Result

Among installed search components is also https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/files_fulltextsearch_tesseract (including deb packages with tessearct engine and recognition definitions files for all languages on underlying system), which (Nextcloud app) was updated recently (after long time).

Actual Result

OCR component for Full text search is missing
(logical - it wasn't updated, thus available for long time, but situation changed recently - would it be possible to reflect that please?)

Research direction

Start by locating the Full Text Search installation subitem in menu.sh. Review the linked files_fulltextsearch_tesseract app and the existing search-component installation steps, including the requested Tesseract packages and language definitions. Done means the menu option installs the OCR component alongside the other Full Text Search components.
