KVoice is an application of the KDE project http://www.kde.org. KVoice can be found on ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/, the main ftp site of the KDE project.
In order to successfully compile KVoice, you need
at least the Beta 4 versions
of kdelibs
. All required libraries
as well as KVoice itself can be found on
ftp://ftp.kde.org/pub/kde/.
In order to compile and install KVoice on your system, type the following in the base directory of the KVoice distribution:
% ./configure
% make
% make install

The second method is usually preferable, and can be achieved typing the following command in the base directory of the KVoice distribution (after having compiled and installed kvoice with the commands given above).
% make suid-install
Since KVoice uses autoconf
you should have no trouble
compiling and installing it. Should you run into problems please
report them to me.
KVoice will try to configure itself and mgetty as far as possible without user interaction (please note: if Kvoice is run suid, you will have to configure kvoice as root.) There are however some things, which KVoice can not determine by itself. So please check, in the menu options/setup if everything is setup correctly.
