Bug#767601: brltty: the NoScreen driver prevents brlapi output



Package: brltty
Version: 5.2~20141018-2
Severity: important
Tags: pending

Hello,

brltty 5.2 changed the VT number returned by the NoScreen driver, making
all output from brlapi ignored.  This doesn't hurt actual users of
brltty, but prevents easy testing from sighted users, such as
documented on https://wiki.debian.org/DebianInstaller/Accessibility
Patch is pending upload.

Samuel
