Re: [orca-list] Upgrading Orca

[Jean-Philippe MENGUAL <texou actux eu org>]

Hi,

If I take the Debian's experience, I'd say that upgrading until orca
3.0.4 is possible with gnome2. Orca 3.1 and newer seem in test, with
gnome3, and especially with at-spi2 which is not yet really stable. I
know someone who, on Debian 6.0, could install orca 3.0.4 (it's not the
default, but he managed to get this with some individual work), which
works with gnome2 and at-spi1. I don't think going beyond is a good idea
at this time. Anyway, all that isn't so easy due to the packaging
issues, you should do that carefully and ask help in the distro in order
to do such upgrades.

Regards,
