>The question is, what is unknown?

It means that the build procedure couldn't determine which precise revision of 
brltty 5.2 was being built. That occurs when brltty is built outside of its git 
repository because, when doing it that way, git can't be asked what the precise 
revision is.

>Might that influence the working of brltty?

No, not at all. It's just a piece of potentially helpful, but strictly passive, 
information that can't be determined.
