I get very slow speech, a ton of warnings regarding some property not found (but no indication as to which one) and brlapi initialisation silently fails. So pretty much nothing works yet. > When libgnome-mag1 got upgraded, my Gnopernicus 0.84 stopped > working.

I am working on the 0.9.17 package, but I can't upload it yet since it isn't ready. If you find out why a straight source upgrade from 0.8.4 to 0.9.17 + copying ttybrl.c From 0.8.4 to 0.9.17 sources doesn't work at all, let me know. > I don't want to build Gnopernicus from source if I can avoid it > because I was getting good results with the Gnome 2.6 and > Gnopernicus 0.8.4 packages in Debian. Well, we should probably file a pseudo RC bug on gnome-mag or so to prevent it from slipping into sarge in case we can't work out the breakage before the release. Anyway, highest priority is getting the 0.9.17 package working and out the door. -- CYa, Mario
