>What lines do I need to add in the makefile. 

I've attached a patch (brltty-make-1.patch) to this message that does it 
properly. It's the fix that's been committed to the repository. If you apply it 
then you'll need to configure again.

A simpler way, for now, is to remove these two lines from Programs/Makefile:

   966: $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) brltty-ktb$X $(INSTALL_PROGRAM_DIRECTORY)
   967: $(INSTALL_PROGRAM) brltty-tune$X $(INSTALL_PROGRAM_DIRECTORY)

Note that you'll lose this change the next itme you configure. Applying the 
attached patch would really be the best route.

>I assume one involves creating the brltty-tunes directory.

No. brltty-tune (no s) and brltty-ktb are two new commands that are being 
built. The problem was that they weren't included in the install dependency 
list.
