Thanks to Simon Swerwer, we now have voiceovers for Adventurer / Fortress mode speech.
When will a 40.08 compatible version be released? Getting constant crashes of soundsense during combat.
Another Linux option would be to setcap at install; you'd only have to run something as root once, and you'd never disable the global protection. With an rpm/deb package you could make it invisible even.
I have not looked at how dfhack goes about this but it should be possible to just have these utilities be the parent of the df process (i.e. they start it) and do without the bad CAP_SYS_PTRACE.

Building under Ubuntu 12.04 LTS / 64-bit:ok i'll see about adding that to the documentation. if i remember the ptrace/sudo stuff was there before i even forked the code, so i'm not sure how that precompiled version doesn't require it.
Followed the instructions at https://github.com/splintermind/Dwarf-Therapist/blob/master/BUILDING.txt, *except* prior to doing that I had to do:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-sdk-team/ppa
sudo apt-get update
Those are necessary because they intend Qt 5 for use on more recent releases of Ubuntu. If you build other stuff that uses Qt, you may want to read up on the above before doing it.
Compiles, installs, and runs OK. I haven't had time to test much - wanted to post before I forget what I did.
I'm suprised at the requirement for running it as root. The old precompiled verision that I was using on Ubuntu 10.04 did not require it. Was use of ptrace added since the fork?
I see the suggestion for running it as a child of df, but I start df with dfhack, and ./dfhack& causes problems because you need the terminal. Any ideas for how to launch it as a child when using dfhack?
Splintermind, are you interested in talking to the dfhack people about converting it to a plug-in?
setting things up to use dfhack as a back-end would be very beneficial. i already use a dfhack script to generate another list of memory offsets to use, but it's all very redundant, and probably some code that could be removed entirely if there was access to a dfhack api. however, i honestly don't even know where to begin such a conversion.
Please do upload the files it would help me find if it's a bug, I've never had the timeline crash but because of how many factors are involved I could have certainly overlooked something.
