Package: libqt5texttospeech5 Version: 5.12.5-1 Severity: normal Tags: a11y Control: block 955762 by -1 Control: tags 955762 - patch Hi, I filed #955762 on Okular because if one doesn't have at least one of qtspeech5-flite-plugin or qtspeech5-speechd-plugin installed, the only error it prints is to the CLI doing TTS. These plugins have no reverse dependencies. It appears this isn't specific to Okular. KMouth also doesn't work unless one types the path to a binary to a preferred engine. KAnagram's settings are to speak the words by default but it hadn't been doing this without a plugin. Knights (which doesn't have rdeps either) tries to use speech out of the box though there is no mention in the program. I'm not familiar with Qt and don't know whether this library has an actual dependency on a plugin, or if the dep duty lies elsewhere. Or which engine should be preferred, assuming all programs can use either. Please point me in the right direction. It was this blog post [1] that had shown me that the dependency is needed, and hopefully no one else will miss out on such nifty features or feel frustration.
