-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Jonathan, I switched my portaudio package in Debian from portaudio18 to portaudio19, and got myself into a pack of trouble doing so. That's what pulled jack in, and a bunch of other things decided to depend on jack as well, including lots of components of openoffice.org. I finally held my breath and purged jack, plus all the things that depended on it, and then put portaudio18 back again. Reinstalling openoffice.org then worked without needing jack. Very strange, but I am now back to the Debian packages for espeak and speech-dispatcher (1.26 and 6.2) and all is well again. I guess I just better stay away from the bleeding edge. <smile> Chuck - -- The Moon is Waxing Gibbous (97% of Full) My new web site location is at: http://hallenbeck.ftml.net College, that fountain of knowledge, where everyone goes to drink. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFG0hlK0maTgpPXM9cRAkpUAJ9YYGZpultmoako60xCQEMuD6EHYgCff/Js nRZ+tQ5x8AVNWY5GkZGUv8k= =Fup3 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
