For now I taken speech-tools, festival and festival-ru. Locally |
| 41 |
updated version works, but I want to refresh patchset and include |
| 42 |
some patches from Debian, e.g. there are known memory handling |
| 43 |
issues in speech-tools which may be reposponsible for bug 634928 or |
| 44 |
similar problems. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
I expect stuff to be finally committed within 10 days. |
