Package: festival
Version: 1:2.1~release-1
Severity: normal
Thank you very much for maintaining Debian's
festival package.
It's impressive and handy.
I happened to notice that it hangs on the
following, at least for me:
$ echo team ... them. Tonight? 3? and. Knicks? SILENTLY HANGS HERE |
festival --language americanenglish --tts
After I press enter, but before it starts
speaking, it issues the following warning:
PAUSE command ignored (no hw support)
I've read some reports that associate the above
warning with alsa.
I recently upgraded both festival and alsa.
It didn't hang with previous versions and the
same hardware.
For what it's worth, flite works:
$ echo team ... them. Tonight? 3? and. Knicks? SILENTLY HANGS HERE | flite
Thanks,
Kingsley

P.S. I wasn't sure whether Kumar (uploader), Jean-Philippe (new maintainer)

close it. I have taken the liberty to close it since I primarily
investigated this bug.
Apologies if as an uploader I was not meant to close bugs.

Changes:
alsa-utils (1.0.24.2-2) unstable; urgency=low
.
[ Jordi Mallach ]
* Add aplay_interactive.patch from Takashi Iwai to revert a behaviour
change in aplay which broke festival and possibly other scripts, while
retaining the new interactive functionality via a new -i option
(closes: #638369
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=638369>).
.
[ Elimar Riesebieter ]
* Don't install udev rules. It is not needed to run alsactl. Instead make
init depend on "mountall" to make sure /usr and /var is mounted for
running alsactl. (Closes: #636437
<http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=636437>)
* Added "build-arch: build ; build-indep: build" to rules to
satisfy lintian.
* Install utils.sh executable
