They may or may not be the maintainer. When I was a TU, I built plenty of packages that had a maintainer other than me. You cannot even rely on the # Maintainer: comment in the PKGBUILD files from the Arch Build System. Running grep 'Brannon' /var/abs/community/* will turn up several packages that still have me listed as the maintainer, even though I haven't been a TU for several years. So to make a long story short, trying to figure out who maintains a package on Arch is nigh impossible, and the recommended way of reporting issues is the bugtracker. -- Chris ___ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list

Fernando Botelho writes: > So how can one find out who is in charge of portaudio in ARCH Linux? Depending on whether or not the package is installed on your Arch, one of the following two commands: sudo pacman -Si portaudio sudo pacman -Qi portaudio This, and additional info about asking such questions on Arch is documented. Find your pacman documentation at: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman NOTE: Arch is one of the best documented Linux distributions ever, imo. I've found it useful to bookmark links like the above, and I commend that practice to you. hth Janina > > it is a rolling distro, so is it even worth bothering with it, as I guess it > will get updated sometime this month.

Re: Emacspeak and eSpeak
I think it defaults to UK english. Most things have to be changed to US english. Everything happens after coffee!

The default is a UK English voice. I was able to change this in the past, but when I tried to change it recently the same steps didn't work. It's not that big a deal for me, so I haven't put the time into it to figure it out. I understand. Just one question: I like to receive plain text email, just so I know what url links are really pointing to. But 90% of the time I just read the text and would rather ignore the urls. Does Emacspeak allow one to simply turn-off the reading of urls? it is annoying to have to listen to long urls when one is not interested in it and I never understood why more conventional screen readers do not have the ability to silence that out.

Re: Emacspeak and eSpeak
Voice-lock gives you a different voice when the font changes, such as when you're reading a comment in your code or you come across a link in your browser. The default is a UK English voice.
