Whether or not flite is installed is not checked before loading, leading to errors logged if it does not exist.

Upon loading minecraft on linux without flite, the text-to-speech library minecraft uses for its narrator installed, minecraft will attempt to load libflite.so without first checking for its existence, leading to errors in the log. Attached is a log file including the errors.

The changelog for 1.20-pre2 includes the following change:

Game will now display message box on startup if user enabled text-to-speech functionality, but it is not available

Can you please check whether this also fixes your issue, by trying to reproduce this issue in the latest dev release (currently 1.20-pre4)?

this does not fix the issue on 1.20.1

Thank you for your report!
After consideration, the issue is being closed as Working as Intended.

Please note, that mechanics of the game may change between updates.
Things such as graphics, sounds, world creation, biomes, redstone, villagers, and animals may not work the same in current versions.

i don’t understand how this could be working as intended. if flite is considered to be an optional dependency, then errors occurring if it is not present should be corrected, and if flite is considered to be a required dependency that should be reΓ«valuated as it is only necessary for a single function of the game, without which no other functionality is impacted.
