There are rpms inside these tar files
http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/Linux/ViaVoice/

The TTS stuff is in these, there are 3 versions

ViaVoice TTS version 5.1
http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/Linux/ViaVoice/viavoice_tts_rtk_5.tar
http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/Linux/ViaVoice/viavoice_tts_sdk_5.tar

ViaVoice Outloud version 5.1
http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/Linux/ViaVoice/viavoice_outloud_rtk_5.tar
http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/Linux/ViaVoice/viavoice_outloud_sdk_5.tar

ViaVoice Outloud version 5.0
http://www.ecn.purdue.edu/~laird/Linux/ViaVoice/viavoice_outloud_sdk_rtk.tar

You will probably need to use the force and nodeps options on rpm
Example rpm -ivh FILENAME --force --nodeps

ViaVoice only seems to work on systems with glibc 2.3.1. or earlier

If rpm doesn't work the rpms can be converted to tgz files with rpm2tgz

Sometime an eci.ini file needs to be generated using the inigen program
(if the rpm install doesn't work)
