Bug#543920: emacspeak: Ship linux-espeak speech server precompiled
Package: emacspeak
Version: 29.0-3
Severity: wishlist
Currently, emacspeak ships a .blurb file for espeak, which
means the emacspeak configuration dialog lists espeak as a possibility.
However, if I choose espeak, I end up with no speech synthesizer, since
I am apparently supposed to compile it myself.
However, the dependencies of the linux-espeak speech server are all
present in Debian main.
Please compile it during package build and install it precompiled, so
that it can be selected right away without manual user intervention.
