You did it the right way.

You need to turn on six-dot braille for the contraction table to take effect. 
That's how you switch between contracted and computer braille.

>it shows the de.ttb table as before.

Either remove the old table by hand or do a "make uninstall" before doing the 
"make install". Doing "make install" doesn't remove obsolete files.

>Do I eventually have to do a "make clean"? If I remember right, the

Yes, it does. It actually does "make distclean", which is more thorough. That's 
only for the build tree, though. It has no impact on the installed files.
