Re: [orca-list] Is there a life after orca-2.20?

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi:

The entire Orca team is developing Orca v2.21.x on Ubuntu and Open 
Solaris machines.  It's working well for us, so I suspect there just 
might be some difference on Debian (e.g., default install paths) that 
are causing the AT-SPI registry to not start.

The http://live.gnome.org/Orca/DownloadInstall page mentions that 
libexecdir should point to the directory holding your at-spi-registryd 
command.  If it's not under /usr/lib/at-spi on Debian, this might one of 
the problems you're running into.

In addition, you might try running your system's at-spi-registryd in a 
shell by hand to see if any errors are emitted by it.

I wish I could help more, but I don't develop on Debian.  :-(
