You only say eflite is mute. Could you give a bit more info what happens?
If you launch eflite by hand, does it speak:
# /usr/bin/eflite
q { hello world! }
d
This should speak hello world.

Yes

You think? It would be more useful if you could be more concret.
emacspeakconfig is executed automatically after emacspeak was installed.
The problem is that eflite needs to be installed before emacspeak so that
emacspeakconfig can find eflite. If you installed eflite after emacspeak, you
can still call emacspeakconfig by hand, and reconfigure emacspeak for
eflite.

No, the user can, but doesn't have to run it manually. For criticism about
Chasell's texts, please contact him.
