I encountered a build error:

ph_english_us_nyc(44): Bad vowel file: 'vwl_en_us_nyc/a_raised'

the problem is in the espeak-ng build dependency which has a hard coded path limit of 160 characters on linux. The issue was fixed in espeak-ng in commit f38be5ce896a5d2f8aae1ba16d9fc743089338b1. I would suggest just using that commit by patching the source, e.g. in build():

There seems to be a conflict with package "piper" (https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/piper/). I just updated piper-tts-git 1:1.4.0.r0.g490b4df-1.1 from chaotic-aur and had to remove "piper".

Edit: Fixed with 1:1.4.0.r1.g310e52c-1

The repo moved to https://github.com/OHF-Voice/piper1-gpl See readme in the original repo

depends=() needs onnx and openmpi, makedepends=() needs ninja instead of make

conflicts=('piper-tts-bin')

of course.

provides=("piper-tts")

but I am not sure if this is compatible with other piper packages.

can you add 

provides=("piper-tts")
conflicts=('piper-tts-bin')

so the other packages know not to uninstall this or break build?
