Re: [orca-list] gnome-orca: Conflict between orca and pavucontrol

[Joanmarie Diggs <jdiggs igalia com>]

Hi Samuel.

Orca 2.30.2? Wow. That's a really old version which has not been
maintained for quite some time. (Years I think.) Newer versions of
Orca have sanity checks to prevent that KeyError. Maybe the next step
is for Debian to either upgrade its version of Orca or to fix the bug
downstream.

Take care.
