Re: [orca-list] updating Orca

[Thomas Ward <thomasward1978 gmail com>]

Hi Glenn,

Well, to start with the package name is gnome-orca not orca. It would
help to request the correct package name when trying to do an apt-get
install or upgrade.

Another thing to remember is a lot of times the repositories are out
of date. Meaning the stable build available on the Ubuntu repository
isn't necessarily the latest to begin with. If you truly want an up to
date version of Orca you have to build from source.

Cheers!
