Orca does not directly search for your brlapi.key, libbrlapi does,
which is called from Orca via its python bindings.
If you installed a hand-compiled version of brltty in /usr/local,
it is likely that orca is picking up your parts of your locally
compiled version of libbrlapi somehow.
You should be knowing what you're doing if you run mixed
setups like this.
As a hint, maybe you can get around things by putting
a symlink from /usr/local/etc/brlapi.key to /etc/brlapi.key?

But you installed a local version in /usr/local, why do you suppose
the behaviour should be the same as with the debian package if you
explicitly
changed the prefix?
