Missing keys in the shema shipped in the orca pacakage in Bionic

[Didier Spaier]

In the file org.gnome.orca.gschema.xml shipped in the orca package for bionic (amd64) there are no keys for the files whose name begins with "Announce" in the Say All group of fields of the General Tab of the Screen Reader Preferences GUI of Orca.

As a consequence, the user can not change these settings using the GUI: she can check or uncheck the options, but this has no effect and when starting the GUI again after confirmation the initial settings are back.

Release Ubuntu 18.04
orca version 3.28.0-3ubuntu1

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Instead of:
there are no keys for the files whose name begins with "Announce"
please read:
there are no keys for the fields whose name begins with "Announce"

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package orca - 3.35.3-1ubuntu1

---------------
orca (3.35.3-1ubuntu1) focal; urgency=medium

  * Update and resynchronize on Debian, remaining Ubuntu changes
  * debian/patches/unity-a11y.patch: add hacks to better work with Unity
  * debian/control.in: build with gstreamer now but lower the python3-gst-1.0
    recommends to suggests while that component is still in universe
  * Removed Ubuntu delta
  * debian/patches/0001-Add-GSettings-backend-to-Orca.patch:
      remove the gsettings backend, it's unmaintained and buggy
