Re: [orca-list] Latest orca that can be installed on Ubuntu 16.04

hi

I'm no orca expert, but I don't believe you can use 3.26. Maybe 3.20 or 
3.22, but the version that is installed on xenial, which is 16.04 is 
3.18. If you try to build orca from git the bits that orca depends on, 
at-spi, gtk, etc are too old and orca will fail to build. Unless there's 
a PPA out there that has the newer bits, and there might be, I think 
you're limited. I'd recommend a more up to date distro for running 
latest software, like antergos. But antergos definitely has something 
wrong. Despite everyone on this list assuring me their installs work 
fine, I managed to drag an old laptop out of the closet and installed 
antergos on it. Same issue I've reported hear. No speech after an 
install. I want to help get this fixed instead of complaining about it. 
How should I go about debugging this? I've already reported to antergos 
on twitter.

Thanks

Kendell Clark
