You have to install libespeak-dev. This will always be the case, because 
Debian policy states that the library .so symlink only goes in the -dev 
package, as its usually only needed for building packages against that 
library.

Once espeak is built against gnome-speech, this will no longer be 
required. If you can wait a week at most, all this should be done.
