Re: building gnome-speech for dectalk and swift voices

[Gilles Casse <gcasse oralux org>]

Hello,

You could check that the TTS libraries are found by your system.

For example, here, the ldconfig command finds the DECtalk software's
 libraries. This command line:

ldconfig -p | grep libtts

returns:

	libtts_us.so (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libtts_us.so
	libtts_fr.so (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libtts_fr.so
	libtts.so (libc6) => /usr/local/lib/libtts.so

If these libraries do not appear, you could want to add the /usr/local
directory as a possible place for shared libraries. 

A possible solution is :
* as root, this line is added in the /etc/ld.so.conf file:
/usr/local/lib

* and ldconfig is launched in a shell terminal(still as root).

Best regards,

Gilles
