Bug Description
When trying to install the "espeakup" with "sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install espeakup" gives error and does not conclude. It seems that the error is that the installer expects that the "speakup_soft" module is already loaded and when it is not (which is very common) the error occurs (there is no error loading the module before installation "sudo modprobe speakup_soft && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install espeakup"); the installation should not crash due to the lack of the "speakup_soft" module, it should only give an alert indicating that it would be interesting for the user to load the "speakup_soft" module.
