Re: [orca-list] how to install arch with gnome and orca?

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
There is no definite order while reading these articles as some info is 
overlapping.
If you can, please try to skim them all first in the order I have put 
them into my email, then you will be able to distinguish what is obvious 
to you and what needs extra attention. I am sure you as an experienced 
linux user will not need to follow all of this without kknowing what you 
are doing.

Greetings

Peter
