Bug 355339 – app-accessibility/speechd-el-2.4 version bump

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Christopher Brannon (RETIRED) 2011-02-17 18:06:34 UTC]

Here is an ebuild for the latest version of speechd-el.
Note that this package works fine with the version of cedet distributed
with GNU emacs 23.  However, it fails for unknown reasons if app-emacs/cedet
is installed.  Thus, I added a blocker for app-emacs/cedet.

Chris,

I saw a post from you on the speech-dispatcher mailing list about this
version not being able to run without a fix unless brltty is running.

Is that fix something you could write as a patch which we could apply in
src_prepare?

William,

Here's the problem with speechd-el.
If brltty is not running, and the user has not disabled the brltty driver,
the package will misbehave when started.
I can think of a temporary fix, but it's ugly.
We should really look for a permanent fix upstream.

That reminds me.  This package needs a local use flag for brltty support,
along with a conditional RDEPEND for brltty.

Fixed.  ebuild committed!
