[orca-list] Fwd: Debian Live Accessibility, was Lenny RC1, size issues, and the Lenny release



Good morning,

Please see the forwarded conversation below regarding the accessibility of the Debian Live CD.  It looks like gnome-accessibility may be included in one of the soon to be released images, possibly even with the live installer, which I imagine will be in need of bug reporting.

Thanks,
Everett

Good morning,

This would be excellent, it might also be nice to see if it can go onto the DVD with the live installer (assuming this is a GUI application) so that accessibility bugs can be filed against the installer application.  This would go a long way to making Debian a more likely choice for blind users.

Thanks again,
Everett

first i *personally* think it's nice to have the exact same cd images
combined on a dvd (that's just me, though), so that one can take either
the cds or the dvd, and it's the excately same content. that would speak
against including gnome-accessibility. any *ration* reason of course
speaks for including it.

second, assuming that building the same dvd but with recommends enabled
and/or with tasksel instead of aptitude would blow the image beyond the
~4.3GB, i would produce two dvd images, a 'small' one (dvd5) that
contains only the contents of the cds, and a 'big' one (dvd9) that
contains the images with recommends on and/or tasksel instead of aptitude.

however, i'll test this and depending on the outcome, i'll either
produce one and include it, or produce two images and only include it on
the bigger i think.
