getting the gnome-speech eSpeak driver to build? (was, eSpeak v1.18 released, for use with Orca/GnomeSpeech)

2007-01-13 Thread Al Puzzuoli
Hi all,

First of all, many,  many thanks to both Gilles Casse and Jonathan 
Duddington for making this happen!

Is there a parameter that needs to be passed to the autogen script to cause 
the Espeak driver to be built, or should the presence of Espeak be 
autodetected by gnome-speech?

I think I have Espeak 1.8 installed correctly, as I'm able to get it to 
speak system wide when I issue the espeak command; However, the gnome-speech 
driver is not being built.

Thanks in advance for any tips,

--Al

 Version 1.18 of the eSpeak synthesizer is now available at:
  http://espeak.sourceforge.net/

 This version includes changes made by Gilles Casse which allow it to be
 used with a GnomeSpeech driver which he has written.  This should give
 better results when using eSpeak with Orca and other Gnome applications.

 I'm not sure whether Gilles has announced his GnomeSpeech driver for
 eSpeak yet.  He may be waiting for me announce this 1.18 version first.

 Please report any problems, in case there is time to fix them before
 the cut-off date for Ubuntu Feisty.

In principle, espeak might be auto-detected. 
If the libespeak is not yet known by the system, running ldconfig as root
might help.

Best regards,

Gilles
