Hi all,

I am attempting to build emacspeak on my system in preparation for making an ebuild for it for gentoo linux.

I have emacs 21.3 installed.

The make config step works fine, but I get the following errors in the make emacspeak step:

cd lisp; make  SRC=/home/wdh/emacspeak-19.0
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/wdh/emacspeak-19.0/lisp'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/wdh/emacspeak-19.0/lisp'

It appears that emacspeak may require another module that I do not have installed.  Can someone tell me what I am missing?

Thanks much,

William
