I did not try festival in testing, but according to the relevant bug report, the problem is related to the fact that paths have changed with the new festival upload, which puts stuff in /usr/share/festival now. The problem seems to be that some dependencies are not quite right yet. > It seems a bug as been reported for this problem but I don't see a > solution. I guess you are refering to <URL:http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=199225> This bugreport explains what is wrong. A solution is also mentioned, either get festival from unstable, or from the festival maintainers private apt repository. (BTW, it would have been a bit easier to answer your questions if you had given: 1. a cut&paste copy of the error messages you are seeing, and 2. a link or at least the bug number of the bug report you were referring to) -- CYa, Mario | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> | Get my public key via finger [EMAIL PROTECTED] | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44
