hi
This I have now done. The only problem is that there doesn't seem to be
any braille output. Looking in the logs, brltty is syncing with polkit
but polkit might be denying me access, and I'm the only user logged in.
This is after a reboot. I've uncommented the line that configures brltty
to use polkit, is there anything else I need to do?
Thanks

Boy do I feel stupid. I don't have to create a new group or do any of
that other stuff I talked about. Brltty already provides a group
called brlapi I can work with. This simplifies things enormously.
I'll just change the permissions on the file during the last stage of
the build process, make sure the default user gets added to brlapi,
and when installed the created user does as well and things should
more or less work.
That should generally work fine. An alternative, if you have brltty
5.4, would be to specify api-parameters auth=polkit in brltty.conf.
This will tell brltty to let polkit decide whether the user should
have access to the Braille display, rather than using brlapi.key (the
default policy gives access to the user logged in locally but not to a
user logged in remotely).
