[BRLTTY] Brailliant Bi40X and bluetooth

[Isabel Ruffell]

OK, Samuel, thanks for confirming.

Would folks recommend building brltty from latest sources or trying to rebuild the Debian package with the necessary dependency? (If the latter, it's been a long time since I last looked at Debian packaging; any quick tips other than going and reading the documentation thoroughly?)

Also, should I take it from your investigation that this has now been flagged, or shall I raise an issue on the debian bugracker?

Thanks, all, for the help so far.

Isabel
