Bug#614386: Fwd: Bug#614386: [espeak] mbrola voice path incorrect

[Samuel Thibault <samuel.thibault@ens-lyon.org>]

tags 614386 + upstream patch
thanks

Hello,

There is an mbrola path issue: I can see that espeak
looks for mbrola voices in /usr/share/mbrola/<voice> and
/usr/share/mbrola/voices/<voice>, while the Debian/Ubuntu packages
provide them in /usr/share/mbrola/<voice>/<voice>, since that is where
speech-dispatcher looks for it. Could you add apply the attached patch
to also look in /usr/share/mbrola/<voice>/<voice> too?

Thanks,
Samuel

Package: espeak
Version: 1.44.05-1
Severity: normal

--- Please enter the report below this line. ---

espeak calls mbrola with wrong voice path:

$ echo "vediamo come funziona mbrola" | espeak -v mb-it3 | mbrola -e
/usr/share/mbrola/it3/it3 - -.au | sox - -t alsa
mbrola: FATAL ERROR : cannot find file /usr/share/mbrola/voices/it3 !
mbrowrap error: mbrola exited with status 216
mbrola voice not found
sox FAIL formats: can't open input  `-': premature EOF

This didn't happen with Squeeze version (1.43.03-2).

Thanks


Maurizio
