Re: [orca-list] orca ATSPI error - someone help

[bigd <bigd vi guy gmail com>]

Hi,
On a Debian or Ubuntu system, if it can't find something, you usually need it's -dev package. This may not be 
the exact name, but try a search for python-dbus-dev or 
something similar. BTW, to search for packages, you can run
aptitude search someRandomName
If it finds any packages, it should come up with a list of their state (if they're installed, need an update, 
purged or whatever in some weird letter form), their name and 
a brief description. It might look something like:
i   gnome-orca                                                                        - Scriptable screen 
reader
I personally don't use Debian-based stuff myself (I did for a while, but have been using Gentoo for coming up 
on a year now), so I may have slightly outdated info.
Hope it helps,
KJ4UFX
