Bug Description
Binary package hint: festival
steps to reproduce:
run command in terminal:
echo success | festival --tts --language english
expect festival to speak "success", but it does not; it types this instead:
SIOD ERROR: unbound variable : voice_rab_diphone
festival: fatal error exiting.
You get similar error, if you use "finnish" as the language argument. This is a regression from ubuntu 9.10.
Workaround for english: do not use language argument at all.
