Bug#859957: Fwd: Bug#859957: natbraille: ftbfs without networking

[Bruno Mascret]

Hello,

Thanks Simon for your contribution!

is someone working on this?


Not that I know of.

If someone explain me how to maintain a package (or give me the link to 
learn how to do it), I may work on it.
As Natbraille's project leader I may change some lines of code to 
guarantee the compliance with debian policy.


Best regards,
Bruno

Or do i get something wrong here?

No, that looks right.

[Mika Hanhijärvi]

Unfortunately this did not fix the problem. The problem still exists. I 
still have noticed this only when using Synaptic.



One interesting thing is that if it happens when I do this:



/) Go to eg virtual desktop 2 on Gnome/

2) start Synaptic on that virtual desktop

3) click Reload button

4) Go to e.g virtual desktop 1 and do something else like browse the web 
using firefox or something else



5) Let Synaptic to finish reloading the repository information,

6) Go back to virtual desktop 2 where Synaptic is running and where it's 
window is open



Orca stops speaking when you do the step 6. That happened again some 
minutes ago and that has happened many times. Synaptic was running and 
reloading on one virtual desktop and I was browsing facebook on another 
virtual desktop. Everything worked just fine until I did goback to that 
virtual desktop where Synaptic was running. When I did that Orca 
immediately stopped to speak. When I closed the Synaptic using alt + f4 
then Orca started to speak again.



And by the way I do not remember if this problem existed in Debian 
Jessie. Both of my laptops are quite new. I first installed Debian 
Jessien on those laptops, but I upgraded to Stretch soon after that. My 
desktop computer is still running Debian 7.0 "Wheezy". I did not really 
use Debian 8.0 "Jessie" much on those laptops so you can say that I 
jumped from Wheezy to Stretch. This problem does not exist in Wheezy and 
I really can not say if it existed in Jessie, but it does still exist in 
Stretch. I do not know if this problem exists in new Stretch 
installations. I am going to make a clean Stretch install when I buy the 
new SSD disk, but I can not do that right now.

Debian installer accessibility issue with Czech language / voice / spec characters

[Pavel Vlček]

Dear members and developers,

I found a small issue in the installer. When I select Czech language by 
typing 10 and pressing enter, voice is switched to Czech correctly, but 
speakup ignores special characters, such as + ě š č ř ž ý á í é, so some 
words in the installer are not correctly read. The braille table isn't 
switched to Czech, so reading these characters is impossible, because 
English table doesn't have these characters. So, how can I report this? 
I don't have Debian installed now, because my computer is incompatible, 
but I will install it when I buy a new Lenovo compatible computer. The 
issue is with the latest RC Debian installer, but also in version 8.


Thanks,

Pavel

Hi,
One thing to be aware of with this when using testing is that if you
install over an ipv6 network, network-manager does not get installed.
This is because rdnssd is installed when the installer senses it is on
an ipv6 network and the rdnssd package conflicts with network-manager.
To resolve this, install packages network-manager and
network-manager-gnome after install. Apt will tell you that it is going
to remove rdnssd.
