Maybe ;(
Did you try with a up-to-date Debian OS ? :
sudo apt-get install espeak-ng
Does it install espeak-ng ?
> Suggestion: build and install it from source.
Yes, I did it already. And after (lot of) tips, espeak-ng was working.
I did many test espeak vs espeak-ng (executable).
Also test using only libraries.
Now, after un-installing espeak and espeak-ng, I did try, like common user, to
install the binaries (not compiling all) on a virgin system.
And with my system (maybe broken):
sudo apt-get install espeak -----> Ok, espeak is installed.
sudo apt-get install espeak-ng -----> NOT Ok, espeak-ng package not found.
> Espeak project is abandoned and dead, see for example the official website:
> http://espeak.sourceforge.net/
Huh, on my maybe broken system, I get:
"http://espeak.sourceforge.net is not accessible"
Strange indeed...

Hum, nice (but no comparaison with the huge number of cross-platform that
Portaudio can do).
Ok, ok, you win, I will study espeak-ng more deeply.

Yes my ears are very strange...
Thanks Martin.
