Hello, This is actually like #971944, but for espeak-ng (which is a newer version of espeak that will eventually supersede it). Normally I would have submitted them at the same time but it seems I missed doing it. [ Reason ] Espeak-ng cannot drive the mbrola-fr4 speech synthesis voice if the mbrola-fr1 package is not installed. This is because some of the mb-fr4 espeak rules refer to the fr1 voice while they should be referring to the fr4 voice. This was fixed some time ago in the newer espeak-ng package, but the fix was not backported yet to buster. [ Impact ] This was not a regression over previous distributions, but it's hard for users to guess that espeak+mbrola-fr4 cannot work without the mbrola-fr1 package, I actually got hit by the issue in october 2020 and it took me some time to realize the problem, even though I'm maintaining the packages. [ Tests ] After installing speech-dispatcher, espeak-ng, and mbrola-fr4, but not mbrola-fr1, spd-say -O espeak-ng-mbrola-generic Bonjour should be speaking "Bonjour" I have just tested it in a buster chroot. [ Risks ] The change is trivial, as attached. It is already tested as working in unstable and stable. [ Checklist ] [X] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them [X] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable [X] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable [ Changes ] They simply fix the fr1 reference into fr4. Yes, the remaining reference to fr1_phtrans is on purpose, it is part of the confusion between mbrola-fr1 and mbrola-fr4: fr1_phtrans is provided by espeak-ng-data for both mbrola-fr1 and mbrola-fr4, it was actually renamed to fr_phtrans in latest espeak-ng-data.
