Comment 22 for bug 688940

This bug was fixed in the package festival - 1:2.1~release-7

---------------
festival (1:2.1~release-7) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Sergio Oller ]
  * Improved performance by reducing disk i/o on HTS voices and by avoiding
    redundant HTS model reloads.
  * Rewritten text2wave:
      - Linear in CPU with respect to text length.
      - Constant in maximum memory usage no matter the text length.
      - Waves were temporary saved to disk and loaded from it.
        Now, disk output is reduced by half and disk input is
        reduced to almost 0.
  * Build festival-dbg package
  * Build festival-doc package
  * Language selection chooses only among installed voices supporting
    the requested language. (Closes: 732083)

  [ Peter Drysdale ]
  * Remove sys-rc | file-rc dependency - we already ship with
    init files off due to security issues. (Closes: 734474)

  [ Samuel Thibault ]
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.5 (no changes).
  * README.testing: add.
