Public bug reported: I installed gespeaker to test espeak-ng (with espeak-ng-espeak). espeak works on the command line with the default German language.
Starting gespeaker didn't give me an application window, so I tried it in the terminal, and got: loading available plugins... [DBUS]: init plugin v.0.2 [Debug]: init plugin v.0.2 [Debug]: __init__("Debug", "0.2", "Fabio Castelli", "Debug interface", "/usr/share/gespeaker/plugins/plugin_debug/icon.svg", "") [Stop on quit]: init plugin v.0.1 [Save voice settings]: init plugin v.0.1 [Welcome message]: init plugin v.0.1 [Save window position]: init plugin v.0.1 [Save window size]: init plugin v.0.1 starting gespeaker python version detected: 2.7 loading interface from /usr/share/gespeaker/data/ui/gespeaker.glade loading controls from UI loading languages from /usr/bin/espeak --voices default language "german" not found in the languages list, fallback to "default" Traceback (most recent call last): File "gespeaker.py", line 48, in <module> main = gespeakerUI.gespeakerUI() File "/usr/share/gespeaker/src/gespeakerUI.py", line 106, in __init__ self.loadSettings(True) File "/usr/share/gespeaker/src/gespeakerUI.py", line 204, in loadSettings self.cboLanguages.set_active(self.defaultLanguageIndex) TypeError: an integer is required espeak --voices=de gives me: Pty Language Age/Gender VoiceName File Other Languages 5 de --/M German gmw/de 6 de --/F german-mbrola-1 mb/mb-de1 6 de --/M german-mbrola-2 mb/mb-de2 6 de --/F german-mbrola-3 mb/mb-de3 6 de --/M german-mbrola-4 mb/mb-de4 6 de --/M german-mbrola-6 mb/mb-de6 7 de --/F german-mbrola-5 mb/mb-de5 7 de --/F german-mbrola-7 mb/mb-de7 Is it possible that the language selection fails because the VoiceName of German starts with a capital 'G', but gespeaker looks for "german"? Or does language selection have nothing to do with the crash?
