Re: Orca OT: Is LSR working with Ubuntu

LSR is already in Ubuntu Edgy Universe.  It is an older version, but the
requirements should be the same for the current source version so
installing from source should work.

This is the list of dependencies as shown by aptitude:

Depends: python-central (>= 0.5), python (>= 2.4), libgnome-speech3

So I would guess you would need python2.4-dev and libgnome-speech3-dev
to build from source.  The configure script should give more information
if some packages are still missing.

This is the list of packages that would be installed as build
dependencies for LSR as proposed by apt-get build-dep lsr

  build-essential debhelper dpkg-dev festival-dev g++ g++-4.1
gcc-snapshot html2text libatk1.0-dev libbonobo2-dev libcairo2-dev
libestools1.2-dev
  libexpat1-dev libfontconfig1-dev libfreetype6-dev libgmp3c2
libgtk2.0-dev libice-dev libidl-dev libmpfr1 libmysqlclient15off
liborbit2-dev libpango1.0-dev
  libpq4 libqt4-core libqt4-gui libqt4-qt3support libqt4-sql libsm-dev
libsqlite0 libstdc++6-4.1-dev libx11-dev libxau-dev libxcursor-dev
libxdmcp-dev
  libxext-dev libxfixes-dev libxft-dev libxi-dev libxinerama-dev
libxrandr-dev libxrender-dev mysql-common python-dev python-gnome2-dev
python-gobject-dev
  python-gtk2-dev python-pyorbit-dev python2.4-dev x11proto-core-dev
x11proto-fixes-dev x11proto-input-dev x11proto-kb-dev x11proto-randr-dev
  x11proto-render-dev x11proto-xext-dev x11proto-xinerama-dev xtrans-dev

Most of these packages may already be installed on your system, or will
be installed as dependencies when you start installing some of them.  
Note that the festival requirement may not be necessary if you wish to
use another synthesizer, but it may be installed anyway as a dependency
of libgnome-speech3 or speech-dispatcher, and python-speechd, which are
optional dependencies of the latest LSR source.

Hope this helps a little,
Lorenzo
