installing speakup on RHEL 7/8

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Hi there -

 

I am getting a workstation at work that will be running RHEL 7 or 8.  From
what I understand, speakup is not a package in yum, but it is now part of
the kernel staging tree.

 

Does anyone have instructions on how to get speakup installed and running on
RHEL 7 or 8 using software speech?

 

Any help appreciated, thank you very much in advance
