[orca-list] orca/pyatspi on enterprise linux

["Don Raikes" <don raikes oracle com>]

Hello,

 

I instlled enterprise linux 5 over the weekend, and added the viavoice synthesizer and brltty 3.10 to it.

 

Now I want ot fixup orca to work with both.

I was able to recompile gnome-speech just fine and it finds the viavoice driver no problem.

 

I know from past experience that I need to recompile orca to have it pickup the brlapi bindings for brltty.

 

I downloaded orca-2.21.91 from ftp.gnome.org and unpacked it.

 

When I try to either configure or compile it it says it needs pyatspi.

 

I checked out at-spi from the gnome svn repository and ran

 

python setup.py install

 

from the pyatspi folder it looked like all went fine.

 

Now when I recompile orca, it compiles fine.

 

When I try to run orca to configure it for my user, I get the following errors:

 

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in ?
  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/site-packages/orca/orca.py", line 54, in ?
    import pyatspi
  File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/pyatspi/__init__.py", line 44, in ?
    reg = bonobo.activation.activate_from_id(REGISTRY_IID, 0, 0)
Bonobo.GeneralError

 

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I am trying to get this working for an accessibility project at work.
