Re: espeakup stops speaking bookworm arm64

To do that, the first step is to enable a sources.list entry for debug
symbol packages, then to install the gdb and espeakup-dbgsym packages,
and then after the espeakup process stops speaking, to attach the gdb
debugger to locate where it got stuck by running: gdb
/usr/bin/espeakup <pid-of-broken-process>

If that works and you are provided with a (gdb) shell, you should be
able to type the single word 'bt' and press enter to get a backtrace,
and then copy and paste the results here.

It took me a couple of goes, and I lost speech entirely both times (not sure why), but I got a trace.

I'm not sure how helpful it is though.
