It isn't, the header is where it should be.

As expected, yes. On Debian systems -dev packages provide the headers to
be able to use a library.

It does on Debian as well, when there is no bug that is mostly due to
users not testing enough before I release packages.

And again, to fix the issue you are having, follow what I said:


add /bin/ to

ExecStart=sh -c 'modprobe speakup_soft && /usr/bin/espeakup -V ${VOICE}'

so it looks like

ExecStart=/bin/sh -c 'modprobe speakup_soft && /usr/bin/espeakup -V "${VOICE}"'


Then you will be able to upgrade the package to version 1:0.80-5+deb9u3
normally.
