Hello,

I have uploaded speech-dispatcher/0.12.0-5 for Trixie.

[ Reason ]
Version 0.12.0 introduced a regression in punctuation processing.

Normally the user change choose between speech-synthesizing no
punctuation, some punctuation, most punctuation, or all punctuation,
dependening on the level of details they would like to hear at different
times. This however got broken in 0.12.0 when reworking the punctuation
processing. This got fixed in 0.12.1, but that version was released
after the Trixie freeze.

This is a regression over Bookworm.

[ Impact ]
As reported upstream on
https://github.com/brailcom/speechd/issues/1036
some speech syntheses would pronounce some punctuations, others
wouldn't, making the user experience really bad because they can't
really control any more the level of punctuation being spoken.

[ Tests ]
This was tested manually.

[ Risks ]
The code comes from upstream and is very simple, it reverts the faulty
commit
https://github.com/brailcom/speechd/commit/f9622994cbd43ce67f992f87337fbb0174792a21
and installs a better solution instead which boils down to two "if"s
https://github.com/brailcom/speechd/commit/7cd788acede8604d77f433c393510175ddf8eb43

The large diff of locale/base/symbols-fallback.dic and
locale/base/symbols.dic is actually just a mere file rename getting
reverted, without file content change.

There is also a trivial fix for the blhc report blaming FLAGS issues
which actually come from libtool.

[ Checklist ]
  [X] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [X] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [X] attach debdiff against the package in testing
