[Bug 975876] [NEW] package emacspeak (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 2

[Susan Cragin]

Public bug reported:

Here's the problem. 
Emacspeak has an option to add a voice/sound server with physical locations something like /etc/tty0 (I've forgotten the specifics). 
If you intend to use software you are told to put in "none" in the box. And the word none is already there.  That's what I did.

Well, this default option does not work. 
And the package does not install properly and remains uninstalled. 

So I did apt-get remove emacspeak last night. 
This morning, when i did apt-get update, this crash occurred.
