Hi. I am coming late to this thread, but I know that the prefix is wrong. If you leave this out then brltty will install in/usr/local/... which is what I think you may want. If the prefix is wrong, everything else after that will not work correctly. So, clean the directory /usr/local/root/brltty-5.6 and start again.
