Re: [orca-list] Updating Orca



Hi,
is there an easy way to get a binary for latest orca instead of installing orca in this violent way?
Greetings,
Wolfram

Hello,

yes, you can clone the git repo and run the autogen, make, make install.

As for updating Mate, I don't recommend it. it seems like every time I have updated, after reboot I get a non-speaking computer. My computer will go into text mode, unless I select a prior version of the kernel. Terrible, annoying, but that is my experience. So you can update, so long as you aren't updating the kernel or trying to update to a new version. If you do, it is best to probably just do a reinstall.

thanks.

Hi folks


I would like to update Orca, or at least learn *how* to do it. Am i
correct in thinking that I need to clone the Git repo for Orca and follw
any instructions that might be found in the README file?


Also, I am running Ubuntu Mate which is I think built on top an earlier
version of GNOME. Is there a way of updating Mate or is it not
recommended to update Orca to anything otherĀ  than the shipped version
for a relative novice?

Thanks

Best wishes

James
