Bug 537334 – app-accessibility/svox-1.0 - SVOX PicoTTS text-to-speech engine

• Status: UNCONFIRMED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alessandro Di Marco 2015-01-22 11:00:16 UTC]

Hi!

Please find attached ebuild+patches for SVOX PicoTTS text-to-speech engine. The build produces a small footprint TTS named pico2wave along with all that's needed (C headers+libs) to enable svox features in external programs (see pico2wave.c for details).

Best,

Patches stolen from debian distro. The code base is quite old (2013) but AFAIK this is the only one that makes a fully functional TTS engine with no segfaults whatsoever.

usage hint:

pico2wave -w /tmp/speech.wav -l en-GB "Hello World"
aplay /tmp/speech.wav
