downgrading speech dispatcher

[Kristoffer Gustafsson]

Hi.
The reason I want to downgrade is that you can't use speech dispatcher 0.7 
with speechd-up.
It is because you can't run that as a daemon.
I've installed a deb package, and got speech dispatcher 0.6 running.
But when using spdsay test, I get connection refused.
I had to make a .conf directory in /root/.speech-dispatcher and copy 
speechd.conf there in order to get that working.
What can be wrong here?

Hi,

I don't know your building a software skills, but I'd recommend you
rather to build the git release. The problem must be fixed (I hope).

Anyway the best way to downgrade to 0.6 is using snapshot.debian.org
website, download the needed .deb, then dpkg -i. I hope for you there
are not so much dependencies (if there are, maybe it is worth to upgrade
to a git release (with git clone, ./configure, make, make install).
Because updates are easier to implement than downgrades generally (it's
not an absolute rule).

Goood luck,
