** Description changed: Binary package hint: liquidsoap Hello. I was having trouble testing the speech synthesis in liquidsoap - 0.3.8.1+2-1 so I headed to the IRC channel to sort this out. Iwas trying - something basic like liquidsoap "out(single('say:Hello.'))" and couldn't - make it work. Then I tried the time: liquidsoap --debug + 0.3.8.1+2-1 so I headed to the IRC channel to sort this out. I was + trying something basic like liquidsoap "out(single('say:Hello.'))" and + couldn't make it work. Then I tried the time: liquidsoap --debug "out(single('time:Hello. The time is @.'))" and got this output: 2009/05/19 02:14:43 >>> LOG START 2009/05/19 02:14:43 [protocols.external:3] Didn't find "ufetch" 2009/05/19 02:14:43 [protocols.external:3] Found "/usr/bin/wget" 2009/05/19 02:14:43 [main:3] Liquidsoap 0.3.8.1 2009/05/19 02:14:43 [single:3] "time:Hello.

And indeed there isn't: liquidsoap --list-plugins | grep -A20 'audio file formats' + audio file formats Method to read audio files. + MP3 (no doc) + VORBIS (no doc) + audio file formats (duration) Methods to extract duration from a file. + MP3 (no doc) + VORBIS (no doc) The developer of liquidsoap on IRC told me that there is a typo in the Makefile of the Ubuntu package that prevents building the WAV decoder. Please repair this package as this is the same version in both Ubuntu 8.10 and 9.04 and a lot of people will have problems with it until Ubuntu 9.10 with liquidsoap 0.9.0 comes out.
