I cannot reproduce your failure. I can install emacspeak-ss with no
problem on my system.
I have not worked with pbuilder before. However, I tried
apt-get install cowbuilder
cowbuilder --create
cowbuilder --login
apt-get install emacspeak-ss
and it installed fine.
I'm inclined to think there's something odd about your pbuilder chroot.
emacspeak and emacspeak-ss use debconf. I see from the pbuilder
documentation that you're supposed to set
export DEBIAN_FRONTEND="readline"
in /etc/pbuilder/pbuilder.conf, or maybe "dialog". I tried both
settings, and the default "noninteractive", and all three worked. What
setting are you using?
If you create a new chroot from scratch, does it show the same problem?
