I managed to build AT-SPI 2 2.3.5 and Orca 3.2.2 packages based on Luke's changes to the AT-SPI 2 packages for Ubuntu. I found that git-import-orig and uscan considerably simplified the task. I am sure it would have been even easier for an experienced package maintainer.
After everything was installed, I was able to get Orca running with AT-SPI 2 and a reasonably up-to-date Gnome installation from Sid. Orca doesn't start automatically when the desktop environment is loaded, but I'm sure there's a setting available to fix this. I didn't upgrade Orca to 3.3.5 because this version requires GTK 3.3.91 or later, which isn't in Debian yet. The dependencies of the Orca package need to be updated. I couldn't find a Git repository for the Orca packaging files, so I just ran apt-get source, edited the watch file to make it work and updated with uscan. To summarize, the packages are: at-spi2-core_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb gir1.2-atspi-2.0_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb libatk-adaptor-schemas_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb libatspi2.0-dev_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb at-spi2-doc_2.3.5-1_all.deb libatk-adaptor_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb libatspi2.0-0_2.3.5-1_amd64.deb python-pyatspi2_2.3.5-1_all.deb gnome-orca_3.2.2-1_all.deb Yes, I should have put "local" in the names to distinguish them from official packages. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-accessibility-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
