Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnome-orca
liblouis provides contracted braille support for the orca screen reader. In order for Orca to discover where the liblouis translation tables are, Orca's autogen.
pkg-config --variable=
The pkg-config info is provided by the liblouis-dev package. Without this, Orca cannot find the translation tables for liblouis. The impact is that Orca thinks contracted braille is available, but doesn't offer the user any contracted braille table options.
As a potential future solution, we may request that the liblouis project provide bindings to allow the discovery of the translation table location at runtime. For now, however, it's important to have liblouis-dev installed when building Orca.
Thanks!
