espeak cannot find voice file for mbrola-br2

[Thiago Romão Barcala]

I tried to use the package mbrola-br2 with espeak, but it seems like it is not working properly.

Trying the command:

    espeak -s 100 -v 'mb-br2' teste

... results in the following error message:

    Failed to read voice 'mb-br2'

There are other 3 packages for brazilian portuguese voices: mbrola-br1, mbrola-br3 and mbrola-br4, and all the others are working just fine.

This works with espeak-ng, so not a bug in mbrola-br2 but in espeak
