Vaguely, this is what happens for me:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/GIT/festival] sudo dpkg -i festival_1.96~beta-5_i386.deb
(Reading database ... 277003 files and directories currently installed.)
Preparing to replace festival 1.96~beta-5 (using festival_1.96~beta-5_i386.deb) 
...
 * Stopping Festival server festival                                            
                                      [ ok ]
Unpacking replacement festival ...
Setting up festival (1.96~beta-5) ...
 * Starting Festival server festival                                            
                                      [ ok ]

Could you please tell me if you were running an older festival? I wish
to know the situation where this bug occurs. The simplest solution, I
guess, would be to use a preinst script to stop festival before the
install.

Thanks.

Kumar
