Ah, I don't know the details of the p-u terminology

The change is in the brlapi part of brltty, which is not actually
enabled in the udeb.

Well, no, they're in stable-new. :)

This looks OK to me, but will need a KiBi-ack as brltty builds a udeb.

Bug#954757: buster-pu: package brltty/5.6-10+deb10u1

[Samuel Thibault]

Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
Tags: buster
User: release.debian@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu

Hello,

I would like to upload the attached changes to buster, they are already
in buster-p-u.

The story is that Orca was recently enhanced to support Braille device
unplug/replug, by periodically trying to reconnect to brltty to
determine whether a Braille device was plugged. Brltty however used to
be noisy about this in the syslogs, which ends up making /var/log/syslog
grow quite fast. The attached trivial change, commited upstream and
already migrated to testing since 17th March, reduces the verbosity of
the message, thus avoiding the /var/log/syslog growth.

This is not actually fixing a bug in Buster itself, but some people try
to install newer versions of Orca in their Buster box, and then hit the
issue.
