Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: casper

Dear Developers,

Some minor Ubuntu based accessible distributions using settings storage for 
/etc/skel folder to provide new future created users a preconfigured basic 
accessibility services.
This is true for example the Vinux distribution.
If /etc/skel folder containing a preconfigured .local/share/orca folder, the 
settings file is automaticaly owerwriting the live session running 
30accessibility script.

The problem is live with scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility script
for casper source package. Only user-settings.conf file is owerwrite the
script, another files is right copyed from /etc/skel folder to live user
home directory.

In scripts/casper-bottom/30accessibility script every blindness related 
profiles happening following code part with Orca related:
                        # Moderate Visual Impairment
                        if [ -x /root/usr/bin/orca ]; then
                                mkdir -p /root/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca
                                set_orca_config 
/root/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca/user-settings.conf magnifier
                                chroot /root chown -R $USERNAME.$USERNAME 
/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca
                        fi

                        # Blindness
                        if [ -x /root/usr/bin/orca ]; then
                                mkdir -p /root/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca
                                set_orca_config 
/root/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca/user-settings.conf speech
                                chroot /root chown -R $USERNAME.$USERNAME 
/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca
                        fi

                        # Braille
                        if [ -x /root/usr/bin/orca ]; then
                                mkdir -p /root/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca
                                set_orca_config 
/root/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca/user-settings.conf braille
                                chroot /root chown -R $USERNAME.$USERNAME 
/home/$USERNAME/.local/share/orca
                        fi

If possible, please not owerwrite existing Orca settings file for live
session created users if the file existing for
/etc/skel/.local/share/orca folder (user-settings.conf).
