At 1 - integration is essential, so it's not possible to make it optional
(as it's not possible to make dotconf as optional).

At 2 - what's the problem with building speechd on other distros, if you
have sources? For me the only problem is Ubuntu (because Canonical
developers want to have it's product colourful, shinning, flashing, playing
nice melodies and probably recitating Shaekspeare's sonets, but
"accessibility" is only nice word which you can find on Ubuntu homepage).
Simple example: dumbtts exists from about two years. As far as I know the
only distro where libdumbtts exists as package and Ivona module is compiled
by default is PLD, not Ubuntu...

At 3 - it's problem for distros developers, not for speech-dispatcher
developers. If developer, i.e. Debian's is not able to find sources which
were slipped under his nose, he rather should egage in trade with parsley.
