AFAIK, there's no support for blind people in Debian yet, since nobody
went through the trouble of doing the necessary things to make it
possible.
("apt-cache search blind" returns only "KBattleship". But as this is a KDE
game, I doubt it's something interesting for blind people ;-)
If you tell us what you need, I might be interested in packaging it...
