Re: [orca-list] I need the commands/steps for updating Orca

[chrys <chrys linux-a11y org>]

Howdy,

always an option is to install it from source:

source tree:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/orca/

orca 3.26:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/orca/snapshot/ORCA_3_26_0.tar.xz

unpack, enter the tree and
make with:

./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var

install with
sudo make install

cheers chrys

HelloUnfortunatelly I'm not running ubuntu either. And since Canonical has trashed their accessibility team you need to wait for someone who knows more about the accessibility stack, is running ubuntu and can prepare more up to date packages. I hope I can look into this in the following days but since I'm not familiar with ubuntu it might really take a while.

No worries.

 

Hopefully, someone else'll know.

Then I have no clue, sorry, as I don't know how to upgrade a package shipped in Ubuntu.

Better wait for an answer from someone who knows.

Good luck,

Didier
