You could just install at-spi and gail from source, oh and atk, but no oint, see below. > > Is it possible to have two versions of Orca installed (the svn development > version and a Debian package) without conflicts, and somehow switch between > them? If not, what would you recommend as the best setup? Of course you can, on a linux system you can just point to the exact path of the binary to run whatever version you want; orca out of svn installs to a different location than debian. I don't know where, but you could look it up if you want. Sorry, I'm about to go to bed... Anyway solution: - Keep orca from aptitude installed - Install from svn, and then simpley run the svn version, all dependencies for that will be installed since well, orca is already working. - apt-get build-dep gnome-orca before building. Just use the svn version all the time, its the best and its fairly stable... No need to use the debian version. If you still want to run the debian version: whereis orca Then just run the exact path to the debian version of orca, where the svn build is installed to is ahead of debian's version, to see this look at the variable $PATH... Also, make sure to keep debian's orca installed is my point.
