You were right, I only had the previous version installed:

mirian at mirian-laptop:~$ dpkg -l python-speechd

OK, uninstalled. But now it says I don't have python-speechd:

mirian at mirian-laptop:~$ python
Python 2.4.4c1 (#2, Oct 11 2006, 21:51:02)
[GCC 4.1.2 20060928 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.1-13ubuntu5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import speechd
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: No module named speechd

mirian at mirian-laptop:~$ slocate speechd/client.py
/home/mirian/spd062/src/python/speechd/client.py
/home/mirian/spd062/src/python/build/lib/speechd/client.py
/lib/python2.4/site-packages/speechd/client.py
/lib/python2.4/site-packages/speechd/client.pyc

Is this client.py in lib dir the right module? If yes, is there any
way for me to get python (and, therefore, orca) to recognize it? If
no... what else can I do?

Thank you,
