does this work for you? When I try, I get: Step 7/31 :

ADD ${SPHINXBASE}.tar.gz /sphinx/
ADD failed: stat /var/lib/docker/tmp/docker-builder784663947/sphinxbase-5prealpha.tar.gz: no such file or directory

@donaldbraman you need to download the files from Sourceforge.

I am building this now with 14.04. I will try to upgrade everything later after I can prove that its working but I a little confused. I don't see anything mentioned here dealing with audio. Did you run the file in --privileged mode? Is that how you got it to work?

Ah, no worries. I'm using an API now.

@donaldbraman Do you have a repo I can look at?
