[hts-users:04588] bug in scripts/Training.pl or HTKTools/HMGenS.c?

[Nathan Gartner <nathan.gartner@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,
 I am trying to build a voice file using Tensorflow, with the HTS demo
voice  HTS-demo_CMU-ARCTIC-SLT  .  But it crashes with segfaults.
After checking for null on a few pointers in HHed.c and Model.c to
prevent segfaults, I ran Again and got segfaults in HMGenS.

On investigation , I found that the hmmDir and hmmExt are initialized
to NULL, but were being referenced anyway.

I tried to provide a value for hmmDir in scripts/Training.pl but it
still crashes because hmmExt is NULL.

What is the correct way to build a voice using Tensorflow to generate
a Voice File for HTS-demo_CMU-ARCTIC-SLT ?

Thanks a lot.

Nathan
