>configure: WARNING: Java compiler not found

Since Java is installed on your system, this means that the javac command isn't 
being found. Can you tell me where the javac command is on your system?

>configure: WARNING: Cannot find ocamlc.
>configure: WARNING: OCaml BrlAPI bindings not included

This is okay since you don't have OCaml on your system.

>configure: WARNING: Python interpreter not found
>configure: WARNING: Cython compiler not found
>configure: WARNING: Python BrlAPI bindings not included

This means that configure isn't able to find both the python and the cython 
commands. Can you tell me where they are on your system? Note that cython isn't 
part of python, so it could be that it hasn't been installed yet.

>configure: WARNING: Tcl configuration script not found: tclConfig.sh
>configure: WARNING: Tcl packages directory not found
>configure: WARNING: Tcl BrlAPI bindings not included

This is okay since you don't have Tcl on your system.

>./configure: line 8714: --exists: command not found

Errors like this one are probably due to you having updated to the latest 
brltty development code but, after donig that, not having rerun autogen.
