Re: [orca-list] How to compile orca in ubuntu?



Thanks to burt and jose. I think i'm going to hate ubuntu for now.. It was a VMware virtual machine install, anyway. For arch and Manjaro, just use yaourt and install orca-git. it will pull in the package and build it for you. i have done it and it works awesome.

In arch the steps are basically the same but you need to install the dependencies manually using the pacman command.

The dependencies are:
gtk3 at-spi2-atk python-atspi python-dbus python-xdg speech-dispatcher liblouis brltty xorg-xmodmap hicolor-icon-theme gsettings-desktop-schemas.

Also you need install git, gnome-common and yelp-tools.

Since all packages are installed, you can use the same steps to clone, compile and install orca.

There is also a package in the uar repository called orca-git that can be used to generate a package so that you can install using the pacman, but I am not sure if the package is updated.

If the package is update the installation wil be much more easy.
Maybe someone in the list can share some light.

Hi, I do not use ubuntu but I think that you can use the following steps:

sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-orca
sudo apt-get install gnome-common
sudo apt-get install yelp-tools
sudo apt-get install git-core

I'm not sure if the package names are correct, but should not be too
different.

Now time to clone orca from its git repository.

Create a folder, do a cd to this new folder and execute the following
command:
git clone git://git.gnome.org/orca

Time to install executing the following commands:
cd orca
./autogen.sh --prefix=foo
make

foo must be the name of the directory where orca will be installed.

And finally you must install orca executing the following command:
make install

If you do not have permitions  to write in the foo directory, you need
to execute the make install command using sudo.
sudo make install

Now you need to start the new orca executing the following:
foo/bin/orca --replace

WARNING: do not install orca in the /usr directory. This will destroy
the actual orca installation.

I have not tested these steps on ubuntu, but I believe that work.
