[BRLTTY] problem with brltty and polkit

[Kelly Prescott]

Dave, it looks like when I use ldd on the brltty which is packaged for 
arch, it does not include the polkit libraries.
My version does.
I think, I might have a conflict between my version and the arch version.
I am going to rebuild the original package, making sure to include the 
polkit libraries, and then I will let you know the results.
Thanks for your patients.  I am familiar with C, but I am not used to 
working with such large projects.
