Yes, I fiddled around with the rpm for brltty from Red Hat and a self
compiled version. Mixing the two is not healthy.
BTW I tryied too configure /usr/local/lib64 as libdir but that does not
work.
My configure script looks like:
./configure \
# --enable-standalone-programs \
--prefix=/usr/local \
--sysconfdir=/etc \
--localstatedir=/var \
--libdir=/usr/local/lib64 \
--includedir=/usr/local/include \
--mandir=/usr/local/man \
--disable-java-bindings \
--disable-tcl-bindings \
--disable-lisp-bindings \
--disable-ocaml-bindings \
--disable-x \
--disable-contracted-braille \
--with-braille-driver=al \
--with-text-table=my \
--with-curses=ncurses \
--with-screen-driver=lx

libdir is still /usr/local/lib, why????
