missing libspeech.h when trying to compile speechd-up

[c***@ccs.covici.com]

Hi. I am trying to compile speechd-up on a new system using the latest
speech dispatcher which is 0.8.3 and speechd-up is complaining about
missing libspeech.h, which I assume is something from speech
dispatcher. So, anyone know how to fix? Is speech dispatcher broke?

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

Did your ./configure --prefix match in both programs?
If you just did ./configure make make install with speech-dispatcher,
everything went under /usr/local. Speechd-up is probably looking under
/usr/lib or somesuch, when, in fact, your libraries are under
/usr/local/lib.

I have no libspeech.h anywhere at all, this is the problem. I saw a
message while googling to downgrade speech dispatcher to 0.7.1 to get it
back.

I think they may have moved the file to
/usr/include/speech-dispatcher/libspeechd.h.
If that's not the problem, then where did you get this package? Was it
a distro package? If so, what distro?

The speech dispatcher package is from gentoo, the speechd-up package is
source I have -- its no longer in the gentoo repository.

Well, upon investigating there is a libspeechd.h and maybe I just didn't
hear the d -- I have had lots of errors like this lately! I will check
the source for my speechd-up and see what it was really trying to look
for.
Sure enough, there is a d, although espeak and even my hardware synth
didn't pronounce it at all. It was indeed moved, so I will fix the
source.

Thanks and sorry for the noise.
