Re: speech question.
Hi, I looked at an install of bookworm I did on an external hard drive. It says, alsa card=pch. I'll switch to this, thanks for your help. Maybe a feature could be added to detect different cards automatically?

Re: speech question.
It's an intel pch card if that can help you guys. Thanks again for your help. This should solve my problem. The reason I was enterested in automatic detection is because I want to put Debian on a portable drive to use it on different computers, but I can see your reasons for doing it this way.

Re: speech question.
Hi Samuel. Thanks, that was very helpful. I'm using an older HP stream laptop. When I used the net installer to install bookworm, it saw my internal card, but the latest testing image didn't so I had to use an USB speaker it did see. After installing the system did come up talking from my internal sound card though so I assumed it was fine because Orca had no problems. After reading your message I booted using my USB speaker and found speakup works fine through that speaker. So for some reason it's not working with my internal sound card which is working because Orca speaks on the login screen.

Re: speech question.
Is there a program in Debian that will tell me the sound card this computer has? If not, I'll look it up and let you know.

Is there a point to retaining src:pth?
Hi!
src:pth has been gone from testing since August.
There are no rdeps and no rbuilddeps,
and only FTBFS bugs since like 2012.
I can hardly imagine a point to Pth at all in 2024
(or any time after ubiquitous pthread support),
so it reads to me like an easy QA removal.
But, this seems incongruent with the
inst~15000 + vote~15 popcon
(admittedly, with a peak of 50k, that may just be latent).
What am I missing here? Is there any reason for any one
to install libpth{20,-dev} at any time any more?
Best,

Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Edward Betts X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-devel@lists.debian.org, debian-pyt...@lists.debian.org * Package name: python-readtime Version : 3.0.0 Upstream Author : Alan Hamlett * URL : https://github.com/alanhamlett/readtime * License : BSD-2-clause Programming Lang: Python Description : Calculates reading time for text based on Medium's read time formula This library determines the time it takes for an average reader to finish a given piece of text. Using Medium's read time formula, it calculates the reading duration by considering factors such as word count and the number of images present. The default speed is set to 265 words per minute for English text, with adjustments made for texts in other languages like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean, which are measured by character count. Image counts also play a role, affecting the overall time calculation to reflect a more accurate reading experience. Ideal for assessing text-based content, this tool accounts for word and image density to estimate how long readers might need to engage with material. I plan to maintain this package as part of the Python team.
speech question.
Hi, I'm visually impaired and have been trying Debian to see what it offers. When installing Bookworm with the net installer I was surprised to discover speech in the console worked right out of the box when I login to the console from the login screen. When with help installing using the desktop installer all I had to do was install espeakup and I had console speech when entering the console before logging in to the desktop. When installing using the latest testing image I get no speech in the console, but from the terminal espeakup shows it's installed and running. Is there a file I need to edit to get console speech? Thanks in advance for any help.
