No, but there is a command line tool that synthesizes speech. I have tested in Debian Lenny the following procedure: (I recommend that you create another user, e.g. gnuspeech, and follow the procedure inside /home/gnuspeech.) Run as root: apt-get install gnustep gnustep-devel apt-get install portaudio19-dev apt-get install libgdbm-dev The remaining steps may be run as the user gnuspeech. The files will be installed in ~/GNUstep and ~/Library. mkdir temp cd temp svn co svn://svn.sv.gnu.org/gnuspeech/gnustep/trunk cd trunk Edit the file Frameworks/GnuSpeech/TextProcessing/GSDBMPronunciationDictionary.h and replace: #include <ndbm.h> with: #include <gdbm-ndbm.h> . /usr/share/GNUstep/Makefiles/GNUstep.sh ./install.sh If you receive an "Ok", the installation has been succesful. cd Tools/GnuSpeechCLI/ ./gnuspeechcli.sh hello world Monet, the GUI editor, is not working in this Debian release, but the command line util is ok. p.s. Why are you running Sid and not "testing" or "stable"?
