Interesting. I got a warning about the keyboard package but not an error. I don't get the other errors at all. Are you starting brltty with voiceover off if you are using voiceover? I usually start screen and then I turn vo off to start brltty and then turn vo on again if I need both on. Braille has to run with one or the other and of course brltty can only run in terminal anyway at present.
