Orca was working this afternoon, both before and after the upgrades. After the system was restarted following the updates, no orca. Sound works in
gnome, all other aspects of the sound system seem to be fine, but, with no access to orca, I am unable to tell you what happens.
Have a look in /var/log/apt/history.log to see which packages were upgraded.
Search in particular for AT-SPI and Python-related packages. Then selectively
downgrade those packages by installing versions from stable until the problem
goes away. At that point, if you know which package upgrade caused it, submit
a bug report here or on the bug tracking system.
As so many packages are entering the archive following the release,
unstable/testing are likely to be less reliable than usual for a while, which
is why I am currently very careful about what I upgrade. When it calms down a
little I'll upgrade everything and sort out any problems at that point.
