Feel free to ping the Debian GNOME or Debian Accessibility teams once this bug has been fixed in GNOME. I did fix some smaller accessibility issues in gnome-control-center. 1:3.30.2-3 which landed in Buster this week. Here's a workaround for you mentioned on the GNOME bug: You can navigate from the sidebar to the main content by pressing the right arrow twice. To get back to the sidebar, you can start a search with Ctrl+F, type something, then hit Esc to cancel the search. Now you can use your up and down arrow keys to navigate the sidebar. It is not possible to select search results with the keyboard. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha

Hi Thanks a lot. When this bug is fixed I hope it will be fixed also in Gnome 3.30, not just in Gnome 3.32 so that Debian Buster will also have the fix. It looks like Debian 10 "Buster" will be released with Gnome 3.30, I ofcourse may be wrong. I am usin Debian stable releases on desktop and laptop so I will upgrade all my computers to Debian Buster when it is released sometime in the next summer. And after that the next time I will upgrade is when Debian 11 will be released sometime in 2021...

I agree that the GNOME Settings app has many accessible problems for navigating with only a keyboard and screen reader. I opened a bug now for the most critical issue. When that's fixed, you should be able to navigate most of the Settings app, although there are some elements that are not read and the context may be unclear. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha

Bug#913978: is not accessible with Orca screenreader
Package: gnome-control-center Version: 1:3.30.2-1 Severity: grave Tags: a11y Hello I installed Debian Buster on virtual machine awhile ago. I wanted to try Buster on virtual machine before upgrading my computers which are currently running Debian Stretch. I am blind so I have to use screen reader which speaks the content on screen. As a blind user I also can not use mouse so I use computer from keyboard only without using mouse. Gnome 3.30 desktop's new style settings window in Debian Buster is currently completely unusable with the Orca screen reader. It is completely impossible to access Gnome desktop settings using Orca screen reader. I can open the settings window but the content of the window is completely inaccessible. This is wery severe unacceptable problem. This bug makes Gnome 3.30 unusable for the visually impaired users because you can not access or change the desktop settings. Here is how to reproduce this problem: 1) Make sure Orca screen reader is installed and running 2) Open Gnome desktop settings window 3) Try to navigate settings from keyboard using the arrow, tab etc keys. Expected result should be that Orca should speak the content on screen and you should be able to navigate and change settings from keyboard without any need to use mouse. But it does not work as expected and settings window is not accessiblwhich makes the settings window completely unusable. -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages gnome-control-center depends on: ii accountsservice0.6.45-1 ii apg2.2.3.dfsg.1-5 ii colord 1.4.3-3+b1 ii desktop-file-utils 0.23-4 ii gnome-control-center-data 1:3.30.2-1 ii gnome-desktop3-data3.30.2-1 ii gnome-settings-daemon 3.30.1.2-1 ii gsettings-desktop-schemas 3.28.1-1 ii libaccountsservice00.6.45-1 ii libatk1.0-02.30.0-1 ii libc6 2.27-8 ii libcairo-gobject2 1.16.0-1 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-1 ii libcanberra-gtk3-0 0.30-6 ii libcanberra0 0.30-6 ii libcheese-gtk253.30.0-1 ii libcheese8 3.30.0-1 ii libclutter-1.0-0 1.26.2+dfsg-7 ii libclutter-gtk-1.0-0 1.8.4-3 ii libcolord-gtk1 0.1.26-2 ii libcolord2 1.4.3-3+b1 ii libcups2 2.2.8-5 ii libfontconfig1 2.13.1-2 ii libgdk-pixbuf2.0-0 2.38.0+dfsg-6 ii libglib2.0-0 2.58.1-2 ii libgnome-bluetooth13 3.28.2-2 ii libgnome-desktop-3-17 3.30.2-1 ii libgoa-1.0-0b 3.30.0-1 ii libgoa-backend-1.0-1 3.30.0-1 ii libgrilo-0.3-0 0.3.6-1 ii libgtk-3-0 3.24.1-2 ii libgtop-2.0-11 2.38.0-2 ii libgudev-1.0-0 232-2 ii libibus-1.0-5 1.5.19-1 ii libkrb5-3 1.16.1-1 ii libmm-glib01.8.2-1 ii libnm0 1.14.4-3 ii libnma01.8.18-2 ii libpango-1.0-0 1.42.4-3 ii libpangocairo-1.0-01.42.4-3 ii libpolkit-gobject-1-0 0.105-21 ii libpulse-mainloop-glib012.2-2 ii libpulse0 12.2-2 ii libpwquality1 1.4.0-2 ii libsecret-1-0 0.18.6-3 ii libsmbclient 2:4.9.1+dfsg-2 ii libsoup2.4-1 2.64.1-3 ii libupower-glib30.99.9-1 ii libwacom2 0.31-1 ii libwayland-server0 1.16.0-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.6.7-1 ii libxi6 2:1.7.9-1 ii libxml22.9.4+dfsg1-7+b2 Versions of packages gnome-control-center recommends: ii cracklib-runtime 2.9.2-5.2+b1 ii cups-pk-helper0.2.6-1+b1 ii gkbd-capplet 3.26.0-3 ii gnome-online-accounts 3.30.0-1 ii gnome-user-docs 3.30.1-1 ii gnome-user-share 3.28.0-1 ii iso-codes 4.1-1 ii libcanberra-pulse 0.30-6 ii libnss-myhostname 239-11 ii mousetweaks 3.12.0-4 ii network-manager-gnome 1.8.18-2 ii policykit-1 0.105-21 ii pulseaudio-module-bluetooth 12.2-2 ii realmd0.16.3-2 ii rygel 0.36.2-1 ii rygel-tracker 0.36.2-1 ii system-config-printer-common 1.5.11-3 Versions of packages gnome-control-center suggests: ii gnome-software 3.30.1-1 ii gstreamer1.0-pulseaudio 1.14.4-1 pn libcanberra-gtk-module ii libcanberra-gtk3-module
