That thing is like an 11 out of 10 install difficulty. I hate github projects that are really difficult to get working.

I’m using Debian. So many fucking issues. It probably can’t work on Debian but I’d really like to know what system people are using who have been successful in getting this to actually work.

    I have it working on Debian, it wasn’t THAT hard, but I never got it to work with the GPU so it was SUPER slow. I’ve since found XTTS2 which set up super easy, comes with a web GUI and just supports my GPU out of the box.

      Coqui xtts is broken right now, at least on Debian. I did not try xtts2. Yet turns out I already tried that one. After my computer is done being frozen from my latest hacking attempt to make a borked tts python maybe work, I’ll add whatever the error is.
