If nothing else at least three of us learned something useful today. |
| 39 |
I suppose the shortest way to explain what I did extra before running make |
| 40 |
menuconfig was to emerge espeakup. Having done that espeakup emerged |
| 41 |
about 35 packages many of which it likely would need. I'm pretty sure |
| 42 |
that step was correct, what if anything else to do after that before make |
| 43 |
menuconfig I don't yet know. |
