Title: espeak-ng cannot load mbrola language files Status in espeak-ng package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I tried using all of the mbrola files named by espeak-ng --voices=de : Pty Language Age/Gender VoiceName File Other Languages 5 de --/M German gmw/de 6 de --/F german-mbrola-1 mb/mb-de1 6 de --/M german-mbrola-2 mb/mb-de2 6 de --/F german-mbrola-3 mb/mb-de3 6 de --/M german-mbrola-4 mb/mb-de4 6 de --/M german-mbrola-6 mb/mb-de6 7 de --/F german-mbrola-5 mb/mb-de5 7 de --/F german-mbrola-7 mb/mb-de7 espeak-ng -vmb-de1 "Test" gives me: mbrola: FATAL ERROR : cannot find file /usr/share/mbrola/de1/de1 ! mbrowrap error: mbrola closed stderr and did not exit Error: Could not load the specified mbrola voice file. It does speak, though, seemingly using a default voice. /usr/share/mbrola does not exist. The files actually seem to reside in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/espeak-ng-data/voices/mb I doubt that I can solve this via a simple symbolic link because seemingly the expected directory structure is different: all mbrola files are in the mb directory; there are no subdirectories like /de/de1 or similar.
