I tend to agree as well, especially because some OSS drivers in the
recent linux kernel are depreached, and AFAIR some were even removed.

Maybe the check in configure should be replaced with a fallback?  Check for
ALSA first, if no libasound2 can be found, fallback to OSS?
This should cover the case where someone tries to get brltty running
on an older distro.
