Still reproducible on F28. Not sure if it's relevant, but upon starting emacspeak, I get the following error on the bar at the bottom of the window: Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, /lisp/emacspeak-setup.el

I don't think emacspeak repeats what you type, it reads context from files/commands etc. Though I haven't tried it in a while and there are few users, so it is quite possible something is broken... Which speak engine and language are you using?
(In reply to Jens Petersen from comment #7) > I don't think emacspeak repeats what you type, it reads context from > files/commands etc. That was not the right expectation I suppose. However it doesn't speak either if I a) open a file containing some text, b) fire up Dired with a directory listing, c) open an info page. > Though I haven't tried it in a while and there are few users, so it is quite > possible something is broken... I should note that I don't use it either. I just noticed that it doesn't seem to work when I wanted to convert it to use espeak-ng instead of espeak. It still prints the following error message in the minibuffer upon startup, so it really looks like it's broken. Cannot open load file: No such file or directory, /lisp/emacspeak-setup.el > Which speak engine and language are you using? I think it should use espeak, which gets installed as a dependency. I didn't configure it in any way. Is that necessary? I thought it would work out of the box.
Okay thanks. You're testing on F31? I will try to look at it later, but I also have little time for this package... If someone wants to take over that would be welcome. Over the years I had very few feedback on the package, so thank you.

I completely understand. > If someone wants to take over that would be welcome. > Over the years I had very few feedback on the package, so thank you. I'm glad it's appreciated. Thanks for your time. :)

Still broken on F31. The problem is directly in /usr/bin/emacspeak, where it says: exec emacs -q -l /lisp/emacspeak-setup.el $INITSTR $CL_ALL If I change that to exec emacs -q -l /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp/emacspeak/lisp/emacspeak-setup.el $INITSTR $CL_ALL then it starts to work.

Seems just the emacspeak shell script had a problem path. But I can't get espeak to say anything inside...
Is espeak-ng compatible with espeak? The commandline seems to be anyway?
