I don't need it; I'm verifying the original bug report that started this discussion. With the current Debian package, if we set RUN=yes in /etc/default/speech-dispatcher then it creates a socket in a reasonable place in the file system, but the client doesn't find it. Any reasonable administrator with Linux experience would expect this to work, but it doesn't. The original reporter was probably trying to use Speakup, BRLTTY or Yasr (I can't remember which support Speech-Dispatcher now) early in the boot process and decided to run it system-wide to achieve this. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
