I am stuck on Orca 46 because I'm on linux Mint, which is pinned to Ubuntu 24.04. And so I am rather behind. I think since 47 ORCA's behavior has changed as it reads here (I found out today): https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/orca/-/blob/main/README-APPLICATION-DEVELOPERS.md...

I've been waiting for ages for Mint to get on with it, and now posted on the mint forums asking when they will move forwards. Pushback comments keep saying that the current Mint version is stable, but it really isn't if you are a screen reader user. Hopefully some pressure will help. Anyway, this is to say, I wouldn't support for versions lower than 47 and test with the latest. It might work just fine there.

Ugh! Thanks for the heads-up and advice for which versions to target. The aforementioned machine is indeed running Mint. It’s a nice OS regardless.

By the way, how can we all give this more pressure? I’m not familiar with how issues are typically reported for Mint. Is there an open issue on GitHub to update these dependencies that I can upvote? I’ll need to try it for myself on the other machine, but I possibly might have some additional feedback to add.

I am also figuring that out this year for the first time. Ive been making more issues, posts, etc, to bring it to the attention rather than just complain about it lol. But I don't know with Mint. I made a forum post but it meeds to be approved first.
