Re: [orca-list] no longer able to install orca

I am running 2.6.4.  Also, orca no longer works under gnome and I am
getting some glib critical messages in my .xsession-errors.  There was a
broke abi in 2.22.3 and I downgraded to 2.22.2, and I imagine this had
something to do with it, but I am not sure.
