Oh, it looks like it's not related to Debian, it's related to the Tail
installer.
I'm not familiar with the Tails installer. As I know the live image of
Debian is not accessible and the installer inside the Debian live image
is not accessible.
Maybe Kibi in CC could give you more info as it is more involved in the
installer area. Is there Debian-based installer for Tails that don't run
in live environment?
Best regards,
Alex.

Hi Alex,
I assume you are on the Debian accessibility team? My issue here is that I am running Tails and am trying to
create a persistent storage volume with the included tool, but none of the controls appear to read. And in
order to make changes to my .profile settings stick permanently I need persistent storage. So, it’s kind of
a chicken and egg situation. Have you dealt with Tails before? If so, is this in fact a QT based app? I
did check, and qt-at-spi does seem to be installed by default, but there are just certain apps where Orca
isn’t reading. Maybe it’s easy to blame it on QT, but I actually am not exactly sure what the problem is.
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Cory

If you're using Debian, you should only have to install qt-at-spi to have accessibility. If not, please
contact the Debian accessibility team mailing list to tell us your steps to reproduce your issue. I'm able to
use QT4 and QT5 applications without having to deal with stuff reserved to power user, it just works for me.
Best regards,
Alex.

Hi Dave,
Indeed I was referring to your tutorials. The OS in question is a Debian system with Gnome 3.22.2. I assume
that doesn’t have the QT-AT-spi package built in, because it seems that the auto updater is qt based and
doesn’t seem to read. I will do some more poking around I suppose. Lol Thanks for your reply!

Hi, Cory!
If you're using an Ubuntu of recent vintage (2016.4 or later), the QT4 and QT5 accessibility is already set
up. You may be referring to my old Trisquel tutorials, in which I tell how to manually set this up, as
Trisquel 7 did not handle this. If you're using Fedora, the QT5 accessibility seems to work; the qt-at-spi
package is in the default repository, but I never got it working. I have a script with which I built the
mumble voip program against QT5, and it works.
Cheers,
Dave

Hi all,
I was listening to a tutorial series a while back and in order for Orca to read QT programs it was necessary
to install a package called qt-at-spi. Then you had to modify one of the default profile files and set the
flag in order to get it to work. I was just wondering if any progress has been made with QT apps, or is this
still necessary in order to get them to read? Thanks, and apologies again for the elementary questions.
