Re: [orca-list] Espeak weirdness in arch?

[Kyle <kyle4jesus gmail com>]

In all the years I've used Espeak and upgraded it, I have found
mispronunciations of phonemes, which is solved by restarting speech-
dispatcher, but I have never seen this spelling and strange character
numbering issue. My best guess is that something went wrong during the
automated build process for the package. I am aware that something
changed in the C++ compiler in Arch recently, and that this forced over
a thousand packages to be updated over the course of the past week or
two, which most likely filtered into Manjaro in an odd way. Aside from
installing espeak-test from the AUR or downgrading the Espeak package,
which have both been mentioned here, my only other recommendation would
be to report the problem to the Manjaro team so that they can rebuild
the package. If espeak-test works, then I can see no reason why the
espeak package itself can't work after a rebuild and release with -5
release number. Hope this helps.
