Your wellcome :-). >I have no idea how old the version of SBL I'm using is, but as far as >I'm concerned, it has yet to show it's age, and if I had a bug to >report, it would be that it isn't available precompiled for more >distributions. Your right. AFAIK it is not compiled for any system that uses apt and for rpm based systems it might be available for SUSE only. So compiling it from source is necessary on most systems. >I don't have much experience compiling things from >source, but now that I have SBL's source, I think I might try getting >it running on a clean install of Debian 64-bit. That is no problem, I also use the newest Debian with sbl. The only thing which is not working are the start-stop-scripts for the systemd crap. BTW.: During this discussion many things have been said about commercial and specialized distros, but IMHO things like systemd or pulseaudio are much more problematic for people who are using screen readers on linux. For example getting sbl working with speech-dispatcher is a pain on Debian...
