Bugzilla Bug 7435

Please find attached speak_freely-7.5.ebuild.
Speak Freely is a application that allows you to talk (actually send voice, 
not typed characters) over a network.
I suggest net-im category for this package.

speak_freely-7.5.ebuild

I got this to build and install on two test machines, but when I try to
actually
send speech across the network the processes die and nothing works.

Can you verify that you actually have this up and operational? Perhaps I'm just
being a bit lame :/

No pressure, but I'd like some feedback before I can commit this. I still can't
get it to work. If it is opperational for you, and there's some trick to it..
please let me know. Otherwise this looks like it *could* be a neat piece of
software.

Just launch "sfspeaker -v" to recieve audio and "sfmike -T <remote-ip>" to 
send audio. It works fine for me, with no additional tricks. You can test it 
using "xspeakfree" (needs use tcltk) if you like it more than the command line.

  Pau.

I'm not quite sure how to handle this package. It comes with no configure
script, though I don't know how much that would even help. Take a look at the
Makefile and you'll find that you're supposed to uncomment out the lines need
for your install. There are a lot of notes in there about setting for different
sound setups.

Essentially, I've got to look at the from everyones perspective. It doesn't
realy look like there any sort of real common denominator, as one set of
settings likely won't work for all people. I'm sure this is why you're not
having any problems but I can't produce any input/output.

Closing this bug due to upstream abandoning it.  Check the URL for information,
suffice it to say, this puppy is dead.
