Linux 7.2 will remove the dtlk driver for the RC Systems DoubleTalk PC ISA speech synthesizer card, a 35-year-old accessibility device. The driver has had severe coding style issues and has only received minor housekeeping fixes since Linux 2.6. Users of the hardware are unaffected because the same device is already supported by the speakup driver in the accessibility subsystem. The removal reduces maintenance burden without breaking hardware support.
