TESSDATA_PREFIX seems to be ignored by the compiled program #2

Description

@brunoais

After running (replace [user] with your username)
export TESSDATA_PREFIX=/home/[user]/Downloads/Capture2Text-Prototype/tessdata
if I try to run:
./Capture2Text_CLI --screen-rect "400 200 600 300"
The program outputs:

Please make sure the TESSDATA_PREFIX environment variable is set to your "tessdata" directory.
Failed loading language 'eng'
Tesseract couldn't load any languages!
Unable to initialize OCR language:  "English"
Error, specified OCR language not found.
Installed OCR Languages:
English

Any clues on what I may be doing wrong? I followed the instructions you mention in your README file.
I'm using the latest release.

I'm running on Ubuntu 18 LTS.
