Re: [orca-list] installing orca on debian

["Alonzo" <mariachiac aim com>]

hello Jason,

I tried addingg the experimental reposityr ot my system and did
aptitude install gnome-orca/experimental

I deleted the packages for now because at-spi and a python package could not
be configured correctly. so I'm not sure what to do. I know steve said he
search for the deb counter parts of header files, but I'm not sure which
header filesto start looking for.
Gconf is installed and aptitude build-dep gconf does nothing and seems to
have meet all dependencies.
