Public bug reported: Binary package hint: saydate
For me saydate does not not work without installing the additional packages libsox-fmt-base and libsox-fmt-oss. Without those two packages, the output is: sox soxio: Failed reading `-': unknown file type `ul' After installing libsox-fmt-base it changes to: sox raw: '-': sample rate not specified; trying 8kHz sox raw: '-': # channels not specified; trying mono sox soxio: Failed writing `/dev/dsp': unknown file type `ossdsp' It is not until adding libsox-fmt-oss is installed, too, saytime works. Same problem for saytime (see bug 232290) Using Ubuntu 8.04. ** Affects: saydate (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Missing dependencies: libsox-fmt-base and libsox-fmt-oss https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/232291 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
