[BRLTTY] brltty 4.1: doesn't work

[Aldo]

I compiled it because this Optelec isn't mine but a test model I have to
give back betweene six days now;
so my default is the Satellite and taht didn't required to use 4.1:

how can I migrate to brltty 4.1 in my Debian Lenny without changing other
things ?
does dpkg -i the_new_pacakge.deb will work or does it requires recent
libraries and so on ?

Aldo.
