For now I taken speech-tools, festival and festival-ru. Locally updated version works, but I want to refresh patchset and include some patches from Debian, e.g. there are known memory handling issues in speech-tools which may be reposponsible for bug 634928 or similar problems. I expect stuff to be finally committed within 10 days. Best regards, Andrew Savchenko
