Error messages when launched on Arch Linux

[sevapopov2]

Hi all,
I am trying to use accessible_output2 with Orca and there is an error when I am running the test sample code.
import Accessible_output2.outputs.auto
o = accessible_output2.outputs.auto.Auto()
Output:
Cannot find Speech Dispatcher. Please install python-speechd or python3-speechd.
Cannot find espeak.core. Please install python-espeak or python3-espeak.
Arch Linux, Orca and speech-dispatcher from git, the latest version of espeak-ng.
I tried to search for python3-speechd and python3-espeak packages but there are no any in AUR.
Note:
pipenv is used, the library was installed with pipenv install accessible_output2.
I was told that I need to create a virtual environment with --system-site-packages flag but I don't know how to do that with pipenv yet.

Hello,

• Speech dispatcher is available in the arch repositories at https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/speech-dispatcher/
• I figure you already do because Orca and speech-dispatcher, but if you don't have espeak, you might try the espeak-ng-espeak package.
• The Python API library for speechd (python3-speechd) is built for and included in the Debian and Ubuntu repositories, but you can also get it from Github (copy the code in src/api/python/speechd/): https://github.com/brailcom/speechd
• espeak: Try python-espeak or this updated package: https://pypi.org/project/python-espeak/

I hope this provides some direction.

Hello,
@cartertemm Thank you for your answer. As far as python-speechd: I found a way how to install it for it to work with pipenv. I have to place speechd from /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/speechd to /home/username/.local/share/virtualenvs/project-env/lib/python3.x/site-packages.
As far as python-espeak library: here is an error I get when installing it with pipenv:
