I don't think mock should be installed. It isn't an actual working backend.

Flite also requires some extra modules, but last I tried it it wasn't very
good.

I don't think QSpeech (the abstraction layer used) communicates non-working
backends, so there is not much Okular can do about it.

I think I will mark this as closed.
