@hamzalaq yes, we discussed in GitHub issue.

I will try to look at this later, but the author is not around anymore, so who knows…

@hamzalaq i rechecked the script I made from the wiki instructions (with one addition they didn’t document) and it installs Awesome-Alexa so that it works. (on buster or bullseye)
