I also did notice the issue on my work machine. Does it make sense to keep brltty as the default for all installs? I can understand that keeping it there does make it easier for blind people to use the system right from the start, without having to figure out how to install the package that is missing for them to see what they want to type, etc... It is after al easier to remove the package when you don't need it than to add it, when it provides functionality that you'd need to do the operation ;)
If the idea really is that you need a serial dongle to connect a braille tty system, I guess there could be some type of notification from HAL, maybe, to ask whether the user wants to remove brltty the first time a serial dongle is connected, in case the user doesn't need the brltty and would like to use their usb-serial connector in another way. -- FTDI usb to serial conflict with brltty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/175182 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
