Why are you bothering with gnopernicus? that applications is dead
now.  Orca is the way to go.  I'm not experienced with Debian Stable
so dunno what versions of gnome and related packages are with the
stable distro though.  I'm using Slackware along with Dropline Gnome
and am able to use Orca version 2.20.2 from that distro.  Now I use
svn to move up to the latest unstable releases of Orca and related
projects.
