Bug#630477: Split localechooser in language then country to get speech synthesis right
Package: localechooser
Version: 2.37
Severity: normal
Hello,
Software speech synthesis is now commited in d-i. There is just a small
glitch left in the early steps of d-i:
- the language question gets asked in english, software speech asks it with an
english voice
- the country question gets asked in the selected language, software
speech asks it with an english voice
- speech synthesis switches to the selected language+country voice.
- the rest proceeds completely in the selected language.
The issue here is that speech synthesis language switch should have a
chance to happen between language and country selection. The simplest
way would probably to split the localechooser in two, so that espeakup
can insert language selection in between. Another way would be to make
localechooser make a call to espeakup at the right time, but it looks
more complex for not much good reason.
