dear list,
I have attempted to install orca from sources on my
ubuntu gutsy machine today, but now my system is muted.
1. I have made sure that my system is up to date:
sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get upgrade.
2. I issued the commands: sudo apt-get build-dep
gnome-orca and sudo apt-get install subversion gnome-common automake1.9 with no
troubles except for a warning that some packages were not authenticated and it
asked me if if I want to install them anyway, so I answered yes.
3. I then grabbed the latest sources from orca, svn
co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/orca/trunk
orca, it was revision 3720.
4. I then changed to the orca directory, cd orca,
and did a sudo ./autogen here it did its thing, but warned me that I passed no
arguments to autogen.sh. is this still true? I remember in the passed we used to
pass the location of orca in /usr/lib or so.
5. I then did a make and then sudo make install
which went fine.
but now orca is silent. I repooted and then went to
run and typed orca, nothing happens, not even a warning. same if I run orca from
the terminal. what can I do?
All the best,
