Hello all,
I'm also unable to install espeakup on Debian 9 Stretch with the kernel
from backports.
I've the following output when I'm trying to install espeakup:
invoke-rc.d: initscript espeakup, action "start" failed.
● espeakup.service - Software speech output for Speakup

Des erreurs ont été rencontrées pendant l'exécution :

Could it be possible to backport the fix to Stretch release?
Best regards,
