Hi Gary Do you mean 'gespeaker'? 'gespeaker' used to be in Debian but was *intentionally removed* for releases later than Buster. 'gespeaker' is currently still available as a package in the 'oldstable' Buster repository. The history of the package is here: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/gespeaker and the history of its Debian bugs is here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?archive=both;src=gespeaker and the reasons for its removal from Debian are here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=885287 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=953210 So it is not just a matter of a small tweak to make it work. Support libraries that that 'gespeaker' requires became obsolete, and no longer exist in the Debian project.
