Hi Bryan, I did as you said. However, I am facing the following error. /usr/bin/gnome-autogen.sh checking for autoconf >= 2.53... testing autoconf2.50... not found. testing autoconf... found 2.61 checking for automake >= 1.9... testing automake-1.10... not found. testing automake-1.9... found 1.9 checking for libtool >= 1.4.3... testing libtoolize... found 1.4.3 checking for glib-gettext >= 2.2.0... testing glib-gettextize... found 2.16.3 checking for intltool >= 0.25... testing intltoolize... found 0.40.3 Checking for pkg-config >= 0.14.0... testing pkg-config... found 0.23 checking for gnome-common >= 2.3.0... testing gnome-doc-common... found 2.20.0 Checking for required M4 macros... glib-gettext-m4 not found pkg-m4 not found***error:*** some autoconf macros required to build orca were not found in your aclocal path or some forbidden macros were found. Perhaps you need to adjust your ACLOCAL_FLAGS

I would like to use the latest version of orca so that I can dettermine whether there is some improvement in accessibility in opensuse 11. I am otherwise very happy with this particular distro.Assuming you're on a 32-bit openSUSE machine: 1. Update intltool a. First, remove intltool by running: zypper rm intltool (as root) b. svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/intltool/trunk intltool ; cd intltool c. ./autogen ; make ; sudo make install 2. Install python development packages a. zypper in python-devel (run this as root) 3. Update Orca a. First, remove orca by running: zypper rm orca (as root) b. svn checkout http://svn.gnome.org/svn/orca/trunk orca ; cd orca c. ./autogen ; make ; sudo make install That should be all you need.
