Description Alex Loginov 2019-01-23 01:29:55 CET

Description of problem:
espeak works in console, but not as subprocess of program.
eduactiv8 uses espeak as subprocess and it does not work in my tests absolutely and in tests of other person it works bad: after clicking on 8 letters (sometimes more) it stops as if the eSpeak subprocess stopped accepting new text to process.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): espeak-1.48.04-3.mga7.x86_64.rpm


How reproducible: always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install eduactiv8 and to try to pronounce for example, abcs
2. it does not speak or speaks temporary

Console output looks not good:

espeak -vru "Привет"

I guess problem is in portaudio, snapshot20161030 is too old.

Source RPM: espeak => espeak, portaudio

Assigning to all packagers collectively, since there are no registered maintainers for espeak and portaudio.

CC'ing two portaudio committers

CC: (none) => lists.jjorge, marja11, rverschelde
Assignee: bugsquad => pkg-bugs

It works now.

Resolution: (none) => WONTFIX
Status: NEW => RESOLVED

I don't understand why this report was closed as wontfix... because no newer portaudio was pushed and espeak is still the same, too?

I prefer closing as "worksforme", because there is no longer anything left to fix.

Resolution: WONTFIX => WORKSFORME
