To be honest, I'm doing nothing special manually -- that I am aware of
anyway. My development environment (jhbuild) defaults to Python 3. If
need be I can set up a fresh environment. Perhaps I did something for
brltty that I no longer recall.

See above. So far things are just working. Mind you, I am strictly
testing it with Orca. (I do have a hardware display. An old Alva Satellite.)

Woo hoo! :) Thank you VERY much.

Take care.
