Hello! It isn't that hard to install the speechd-up sources. I did it today, took speakup with apt-get install speakup, loaded the modules, then installed speech dispatcher, and compiled speechd-up. I can help with doing it available in lenny if you just tell me how to do it. I can fix other packages as well, don't have much to do in the summer, just say what you want. /Kristoffer ----- Original Message ----- From: "Samuel Thibault" <samuel.thibault@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Speakup is a screen review system for Linux." <speakup at braille.uwo.ca> Sent: Thursday, July 17, 2008 12:17 AM Subject: Re: Shane's kernels Foreign White Devil, le Wed 16 Jul 2008 13:14:41 -0700, a ?crit : > On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 08:15:11AM +1000, Daniel Dalton wrote: > > I mentioned speechd-up inclution in debian there... and got no > > replies...

No need to edit sources.list with Lenny: it's already there. > I'd originally thought that was what debian-accessibility was for, That _IS_ what debian-accessibility is for. It's just a matter of missing people actually doing things. I personnally am currently overloaded with things to do (I don't remember when I last went to bed before 2am), I can not do all debian-accessibility stuff, so people have to get involved. Really, silence on debian-accessibility _DOESN'T_ mean rejection. It just means people are busy and we need more workforce.
