Dear nonfree builder maintainers, Although the name of your e-mail list suggest this holds for nonfree only, I think that the following building issue may also lie within your power, but please let me know if I am wrong here. Following the developers-reference¹, if I want packages in nonfree to be build I should add XS-Autobuild in the debian/control file of nonfree packages and contact you. What I am missing to find in the documentation if this is also required for packages in contrib that depend on nonfree. I am guessing that I also should request here to have the package build once I add the header? So to become concrete: the package speech-dispatcher-contrib package (part of contrib) is build from the same source as speech-dispatcher (part of main) with only an additional build-dependency on libttspico-dev which lives in nonfree (and is already autobuild there). As far as I can tell, the reason why this fails to build² is that the nonfree archive is not added (by default?) to the buildd for contrib. Could you enable building of speech-dispatcher-contrib or are we (the accessibility team) doing something wrong in the packaging (XS-Autobuild is not added yet)? If there are special requirements to get this to work, shouldn't this maybe mentioned in the developers-reference as well? Looking forward to your response Paul ¹https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#non-free-buildd ²https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=speech-dispatcher-contrib
