Re: [orca-list] iceweasel 31 strangeness




Frankly, I stopped using Iceweasel a couple of years back on my Debian box. I opted instead to activate the Mint repositories and was able to get a recent version of Firefox with which Orca worked as expected. Might want to look into that.

Hey Halim, all.

The traceback you cite below was fixed nearly a year ago. And Orca
doesn't have version support that gets added. In other words, it's not
like "before Orca didn't support IceWeasel 31; now it does." Granted,
sometimes things change in the browser which require a corresponding
change in Orca. But those are specific things which get addressed.

Also I just tried IceCat (I use Fedora; not Debian) version 31.1.1. And
while it's not exactly the same, it should serve as a reasonable test of
what happens in Orca with a Gecko-based browser that isn't mapped
explicitly in Orca. And from my tests, Orca's behavior is the same with
IceCat as it is with Firefox. So clearly *something* is going on. But it
sounds like it might be downstream and possibly solvable by upgrading to
a more recent version of Orca.

Hi,
I can confirm some strange behavior of iceweasel and orca as well.
I think it's a Problem of orca not supporting iceeasel 31.
in xsession-errors I see several tracebacks.

EG:
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/orca/input_event.py", line 513, in
processInputEvent
     consumed = self.function(script, inputEvent)
   File
"/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/orca/scripts/toolkits/Gecko/script.py",
line 5941, in goTopOfFile
     [obj, characterOffset] = self.getTopOfFile()
   File
"/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/orca/scripts/toolkits/Gecko/script.py",
line 3332, in getTopOfFile
     [obj, offset] = self.findFirstCaretContext(documentFrame, 0)
   File
"/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.7/orca/scripts/toolkits/Gecko/script.py",
line 4240, in findFirstCaretContext
     elif obj.getRole() == pyatspi.ROLE_TABLE:
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'getRole'


This should be reported to debian as well.
