So I think this bug is a blocker for FC5 We got tons of bugs in gnome-accesibility-list about this. Posible fixes are: a) Upgrade to 1.96 test release which has the bug fixed b) Add to .spec file the patch in [2] (already on festival CVS) for always trust 127.0.0.1 connections c) patch /usr/share/festival/siteinit.scm some URLS: [1] http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-accessibility-list/2005-November/msg00009.html [2] https://lists.berlios.de/pipermail/festlang-talk/2005-August/000382.html Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.95 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Just run gnopernicus on FC4-FC5t{1,2} Additional info:
