Re: [orca-list] Latest orca.

Hi Hwaen,

No, you do not have to remove anything.
Succes.

Greetings Milton,

Thank you so much for copying those instructions. I am excited to try
them out shortly. One final question before I do: Do I need first to
remove the current installation of orca before installing orca master?

Hi Jace,

Krishnakant is right if you do not want to use Orca master.

I expect Ubuntu 20.04 will ship with Orca 3.36.

I have upgraded Orca to the latest on Ubuntu 18.04 and I always do so
once the tarball is available on the download page for the source.

I've already done that Milton (see my previous message), I was asking
if it's possible to go from 3.28 Orca in 18.04 to the latest stable
released version, not Orca-master (which I already got), or is it
better to wait for 20.04 LTS? Also not sure if it'll automatically
upgrade me to the latest Mate

Hi,

I use Ubuntu 18.04 with Orca master. If as today I press Orca+H Orca
says version 3.35.4pre.


On this mailing list a while ago I copy the following to get Orca
master:


1. Enable the Canonical repositories.
* Open software updater.
* Click the Ubuntu tab.
* Check the box source repositories.
* Click the other software tab.
* Check the boxes next to Canonical partners and Canonical partners
source repositories.
* Click close.
* When requested, click reload cache.

2. Open a terminal window, press Alt+Control+T.

3. Install git, type or copy and paste the following command and
press Enter.
sudo apt-get install git

4. Install build dependencies. Type or copy and paste the following
command and press Enter.
sudo apt-get build-dep gnome-orca

* Answer yes to the ‘do you want to continue?’ prompt.

5. Get the orca source code. Type or copy and paste the following
command and press Enter.
git clone https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/orca.git

6. Build and install orca.
!!WARNING!!
Follow the steps below exactly as typed. Doing something else will
mess up your environment and cause file permission problems.
* Change to your orca repository created in step 5. Type the
following and press Enter:
cd orca

* Configure orca source. Type or copy and paste the following
command and press Enter.:
PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3.6 ./autogen.sh

* build orca. Type or copy and paste the following command and press
Enter.:
make

* Install the built binaries. Type or copy and paste the following
command and press Enter.: :
sudo make install

7. When install is complete, restart the system.

After you can keep up with Orca master by executing the following
commands in a terminal:
* first change to the orca folder
cd orca
* look for uptdates
git pull
* to see what changes are made
git log
* to update
PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3.6 ./autogen.sh
make
sudo make install

Greetings Didier,

To answer your question, I too am using ubuntu-18.04, and thus, my
current version of orca is 3.28 - much too out-of-date, as I
understand. If I try either method that you have suggested, should I
first remove the current orca installation?

Hello Jace,

I never used Ubuntu so can not answer, sorry.

As an aside, if you want to use the latest Orca, you could get
even better
results using the latest speech-dispatcher as well.

Hopefully someone knowing Ubuntu will answer.

Best,

Didier

So related question. Am I able to go to the next stable release
for Ubuntu
18.04 using the mehtod you outlined, Didier? Given I'm running
Ubuntu
18.04, I've been wondering this for a while, is there an accepted
way to
move from 3.28 Orca to 3.3X stable Orca. Or should I just stick with
Orca-master till 20.04 comes out?

Also, related question #2: When 20.04 comes out, and if I do an
in place
upgrade, will it remove the Orca maser I have installed and go
with the
released version?

Hello,

you can get a released compressed archive here:
http://ftp.acc.umu.se/pub/gnome/sources/orca/3.35/

or clone the git repo and make a compressed archive:
git clone https://github.com/GNOME/orca.git
CWD=$(pwd)
( cd orca
git pull
gitrev=git$(git log -n 1 --format=format:%h .)
git archive --worktree-attributes --prefix=${pkgname}-$gitrev/
mainline |
xz > $CWD/orca-${gitrev}.tar.xz
)

Now if your question actually is "how to upgrade using this
compressed
archive", to answer we need to know your distribution and version.

Best,

Didier

Greetings,

I would like to upgrade to the latest orca version, but I
cannot find
a lucid explanation of how to do it, whether from source or from
something like git. Can anyone point to a clear reference?

Thank you so much.
