Who's going to maintain portaudio and espeak then?
I added this makedepend to gnome-speech because an optional, pluggable,
speech engine is built when espeak is present on the system. Espeak is a
lot easier to configure for english than festival, because it works out
of the box right after installing it.
I don't like maintaining any text-to-speech utilities. I only maintain
gnome-speech because it's part of GNOME and required by some of it's
a11y tools.
