Re: [orca-list] problem to start orca

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Sebastian:

In work for GNOME 2.22, the Orca SVN trunk is migrating to pyatspi 
(http://live.gnome.org/GAP/PythonATSPI), the unified Python bindings for 
the AT-SPI.  Pyatspi has been incorporated into GNOME 2.20.

The result of this is that Orca v2.21.x and up will require pyatspi 
support to be installed on your machine.  If you have GNOME 2.20 on your 
machine, pyatspi should be installed already.

If you'd rather wait, you can continue to work with the gnome-2-20 
branch of Orca.  It does not require pyatspi, and we continually roll 
high visibility bug fixes back into the branch.

Hope this helps,

Will
