Re: [orca-list] Latest Version of Orca

[Janina Sajka <janina rednote net>]

OK, maybe it wasn't stated as clearly as it might have been.

Stay away from gnome-shell 3 and everything that goes with it. It's not
the Linux distro that matters, it's the gnome-shell, and the new
environment we're still debugging. This will not change in days, and
probably not even in weeks. Expect this will be true for months and
months.

So, stick with gnome-2.32. And, stick with the xdesktop versions of
Orca.
