Hi.  I am coming late to this thread, but I know that the prefix is
wrong.  If you leave this out then brltty will install
in/usr/local/... which is what I think you may want.  If the prefix is
wrong, everything else after that will not work correctly.  So, clean
the directory /usr/local/root/brltty-5.6 and start again.
