Re: [orca-list] Announcing Orca v3.7.4

To instal python 3:
pacman -S python

You need to install gnome-common too, case not installed.
pacman -S gnome-common
You'll need automake version 1.2.6. With the current version, 1.3.1, I had problems to build orca. 
You'll need to downgrade automake package.
There is a tool in the aur repository called downgrade that can help a lot. You can find more information on how to down grade a package but I can send more information if need. 

Now edit orca's PKGBUILD and change version from 3.6.3 to 3.7.4 or whatever.
Change the dependences from:
depends=(gtk3 at-spi2-atk python2-atspi python2-dbus python2-xdg speech-dispatcher liblouis brltty 
         xorg-xmodmap hicolor-icon-theme)

to:
depends=(gtk3 at-spi2-atk python-atspi python-dbus python-xdg speech-dispatcher liblouis brltty 
         xorg-xmodmap hicolor-icon-theme)

The next step is to generate the sha256sums of the new source.
You cann use the following command:
makepkg -g >>PKGBUILD
Pay attention to the two >> signals before the name of the file.
This will download the sources, generate the sha256sums and append in the end of the PKGBUILD file. 

Now you can try to build the package using:
makepkg -s

The -s flag will try to install the missing dependencies.
If all is ok, you'll end with a file called orca-3.7.4-1-any.pkg.tar.xz, a file that can be installed with the pacman -U command.
But wait, do not install yet because you'll need to build and compile speech-dispatcher 8 beta 1.
Basically the steps need to build speech-dispatcher are the same but I'm pasting in this message the PKGBUILD that I used to build speech-dispatcher in my machine. Orca 3.6 doesn't work with the new speech-dispatcher and orca 3.7 doesn't work with the actual version of speech-dispatcher.

Hello,
I would take PKGBUILD files from existing packages as a base and modify
it so it will compile newer versions. I think this part is clear to me.
However now I am still curious whether this is a lot of work and what
packages do I need to tweak PKBUILD scripts for, build and install this
way.
Python3 is already in one of the repos I think.
If I take py-atspi and orca PKBUILD scripts will I be able to pull other
dependencies automatically or is there more into it?
Or if this is doable perhaps we can upload git versions of these
packages into AUR.
Preferrably I would like to build the packages so I can go back or do
whatever if something goes wrong. I have found this packaging system
really avesome to use.

Greetings

Peter

No, you don't need to install gnome 3-7, at least until now. You need
to install python3 using pacman.

You can compile orca directly from git or create a package using a
PKGBUILD.

Actually I have orca 3.7.4 installed as a package and another version
compiled from git to test new commits.

I am also using at-spi2-core version 3.7.3.

I can send some instructions on how to compile orca and at-spi2-core
using PKGBUILD. The process is relatively easy since you already are
using arch.

Hello,
I am also using arch for some two months. I have upgraded my system
three times without ruining it so far.
However I am curious do I need to install gnome 3.7 from testing or can
I install python3, manually install a lot of dependencies and test orca
on a gnome 3.6?
I am interested on how you are doing it Josee.
Do you have PKBUILD scripts for every single dependency or are just
using ./configure & make & make install where possible ?

Greetings

Peter

I think that even with ubuntu 12.10 you don't,.
What I did was move to arch, as suggested in this message.
The problem is that the arch requires the user to have some knowledge
of the system and some settings are not as automated as in ubuntu.
Moreover the existing documentation is very good in my opinion.
Thanks.

Hi Krishnakant,

Quick answer is you don't. Ubuntu 12.04 is too far out of date to run
Orca 3.7.4. Basically, if you want it we are talking about compiling
Gnome 3.6, possibly Gnome 3.7, upgrading to Python 3, and building all
the Python dependencies Orca needs. If you want bleeding edge builds
of Orca pick a different distribution like Arch which has a rolling
release for Gnome etc which is better for development and bleeding
edge testing of Gnome. Ubuntu while decent for a stable day to day
distribution is not great for bleeding edge testing of Gnome and Orca
without doing a lot of custom compiling and installing everything
yourself.

Cheers!

Great work.
So what do I need to compile this version on Ubuntu 12.04 64 bit.
I am getting an error on GTK+ not properly installed.
It asks for a version which seems to be not there.
Kindly help.
Happy hacking.
Krishnakant.
