Discussing with Debian contributor it seems that the openoffice.org-gome must also be added: - if you don't then blind persons will get an inaccessible error message when trying to use the OOo suite - while sighted don't know that problem because they don't need accessibility tools to be active at taht moment. so if providing an Desktop assistive Technology entry in the tasksel menu, then you should not only provide gnome-orca and brltty-x11 (and deps) but also the openoffice.org-gnome integrator (if not provided by the Desktop candidate in tasksel) Labrad0r -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Only gnome-orca and its dependences; it seems to install itself espeak and so the couple orca (screen reader) + espeak (multilingual speech synthesis) will be installed. For braille, brltty is already installed if for example you entered at the CD boot: prompt a line like brltty=bb,dd,tt (where bb = braille display, dd the device, tt the brailel table). There exist a package called brltty-x11 but this isn't mandatory to be installed for the correct working of orca+espeak. Another thing, there's any specific language packages that provide support for other langues then English? Well, that's the fantastic way the espeak package have been built; it contains lots of languages, these may be changed at the 1st startup of Orca from the Gnome environment (alt+f2 orca enter).

Package: tasksel Version: 2.78 Severity: wishlist Hello team, it would be nice to provide near the other offers inside the tasksel menu an entry that you may call Desktop Screen Reader or Desktop Assistive Technology who will mark the gnome-orca to be installed to during the install process. Since this would be optional, even as mysql or webserver etc are optional too (not installed / marked by every user) this may not cause dammage to sighted persons for now, while it may be useful for blind persons to know that Orca+Espeak is there as well as Gnome itself. This may also help sighted persons from LUGs, teachers, friends aso who need to help a sighted person while they don't know what exactly must be added herefore. This will also complete a little bit the brltty support who is already present now on the D-I. Please do provide this entry if posible.
