The upstream URL of the change log is:

https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract/releases/tag/3.05.00



Tested by building against the following packages that directly depend
on it:

 * vapoursynth (with ocrSupport = true)
 * pyocr (fails)
 * vobsub2srt

Also tested against the following NixOS VM tests that have OCR enabled:

 * nixos/tests/chromium.nix -A stable
 * nixos/tests/emacs-daemon.nix
 * nixos/tests/installer.nix -A luksroot
 * nixos/tests/lightdm.nix
 * nixos/tests/plasma5.nix
 * nixos/tests/sddm.nix

All of the packages and tests except pyocr build/succeed on
x86_64-linux.

Fixing pyocr is outside of the scope of this commit and will happen very
soon.
