Does not start currently, error:

$ normcap
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/normcap", line 5, in <module>
    from normcap.app import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'normcap'
                                                          [ 1 ]

I don't think it has the be switched to appImage (as packages should be source built by default), but the build does not quite work, there is no python code in the package/wheel:

Edit: Normal build with setup.py works, see my fixed PKGBUILD

@Raymo11, see my edited comment below.

Try installing and running on a clean system (without the pip version of the package installed), you get a python error on run, something about normcap library not found.

@Raymo111: What "doesn't work"? It builds, installs and runs fine.

EDIT: You might be referring to the outdated python-tesserocr AUR package. See my comment there, I've got an updated PKGBUILD.

Can you package this using the AppImage from https://github.com/dynobo/normcap/releases instead? The way you have it packaged currently doesn't work.
