Re: using speakup with festival or flite

["Thomas D. Ward" <tward1978@earthlink.net>]

Hi, my Red Hat 8 system is using gcc 3.2 and flite compiled fine. So I don't
One of the problems is that gcc 3.2 isusing all the new C and C++ libs, and
if the developers are unwilling to yupgrade to the new C/C++ libs/header
then the compile will fail or at least give warning flags.
In this case flite seams to build fine.
