Bug#601367: unblock: festival/1:2.0.95~beta-3
Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: freeze-exception
Please unblock package festival (not yet uploaded)
Apparently, many people would find festival "ready-to-use" if the
default backend were made ALSA. This patch merely adds a change to
festival.scm (a file in debian/ installed into /etc) to make this
change.
Please consider this request. Thanks!
