Re: [orca-list] bringing up the preference dialog

[José Vilmar Estácio de Souza <vilmar informal com br>]

Seems that you installed orca in the /usr directory as root, correct?
I am wondering if there are old files in the directory where the new 
version of orca was installed.
One possibility is that the new version of orca is using files that were 
present in orca 3.12 and were removed in orca 3.13. Seems that the 
installation process does not take care of this situation.

Can you rebuild and install orca in a clean directory and run orca from 
this directory to check if the problem persists?
Thanks.
