If I understand  well your NAS is running a stripped down Slackware.
Is this correct?

If yes, to investigate which packages you miss you could just run on it:
brltty 2>&1|tee LOG
and post the file LOG here. Knowing which files are missing I could tell you to
which packages they belong.

Alternatively you could run in the NAS this comand:
ls -1 /var/lib/pkgtools/packages > packages
and post the file packages here.
	
For your information I attach the list of packages on which brltty depends in
Slackware version 15.0 In this list the symbol | is a logical or, so if tje
package aaa_libraries is installed the ones after the | following it are not
needed. Also, as in Slackware the package brltty has been built in a system
including a graphical X server if your NAS does not have one the NAS probably
misses at least the libraries whose name begins with libX in the list.

But maybe I am off topic here, so better wait answers from people knowing Debian.

Cheers,
Didier
