Package: gnome-orca
Version: 2.20.1-2
Severity: grave

Orca currently fails to start:

yavor at keel:~$ orca
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in ?
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/orca/orca.py", line 55, in ?
    import braille
  File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/orca/braille.py", line 53, in ?
    import brl
ImportError: No module named brl

python-brlapi is not in testing (yet) but it seems that orca should
depend on it instead of only recommending it.  I could be wrong,
though.
