Re: [orca-list] Running orca from master.

[chrys87 <chrys87 web de>]

Hi derek,

if you have orca running i guess you would have most dependencys already on your system.
you may check this with something like:

sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-orca

if you want to clone the git you can do this with something like that

git clone https://git.gnome.org/browse/orca
cd orca
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
make
sudo make install

i live on a arch system here so maybe a ubuntu use would give you a more detailed answer.

if you are playing around with a11y tools in linux you also may want to try
ocrdesktop for view non accessible windows:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ocrdesktop

and the "simple orca plugin system":

Hi guys:

I tried to run the following line running on a custom linux VM my class is using (xubutu). I actually did a sudo apt-get install ubuntu-gnome-desktop, which I did to bootstrap orca and get a gnome environment.

I get errors trying to pull these packages, and gnome-about is not an option to check which gnome I have. I wanted to run orca master on this, but if that'll be dificult on this vm, I can just stay on whatever stable is there now. Is there an easier way to install orca from master than  https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Orca/DownloadInstall

sudo apt-get install git-core gnome-common automake1.9 python-json

automake1.9 python-json

both fail.

Thanks.
