installing voxin on arch

[Michael Whapples]

Hello,
Actually it shouldn't be hard. One option is to extract the old libstdc++ files from the debian package and then install the IBMtts using the voxin installer script. The alternative for the old libstdc++ library is to look at the libstdc++296 package in AUR (I think that will provide the required library). Again if using libstdc++296 from AUR you will have to run the voxin installer to install IBMtts.

Anyway, the voxin installer script is not suitable for installing gnome-speech and speech-dispatcher backends, look at recompiling those packages (this wiki page on ABS may help http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_Build_System).

I have created an AUR package for the IBMtts speakup connector under the name spk-connect-ttsynth.

I hope this helps.
