For trusty and utopic, you can add the Ubuntu accessibility dev PPA, ppa:ubuntu-accessibility-dev to get a newer version of Orca. Orca cannot be updated in released version s of Ubuntu due to the stable release updates policy, which does not allow for new upstream releases of software.

can that ppa be made to function with vivid? for vivid is what I run :)

Ok, I'll be updating Orca to 3.16 for Trusty, utopic, and vivid in that PPA. I'll update this bug when that is made available.
