Where is gnome-autogen.sh?

[Kenny Hitt]

Hi.  I use Debian.  I have no problems compiling gnome-speech or
gnopernicus.  For now, the gnopernicus program doesn't give much
feedback.  Messages on the gnome-accessibility list say my problem is
because I am using festival for my synth.  Unfortunately, I haven't
goten any of the other synth drivers to work yet.
