New comment by CMB on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/12173#issuecomment-774075582 Comment: @ericonr Yes, this ticket is still applicable. BTW here's how you can test for the problem locally. Install brltty and python3-brlapi. Start the runit service. It should start even if you don't have a braille display and haven't done any configuration. Run: python3 -c 'import brlapi ; brlapi.Connection()' If there's no readable /etc/brlapi.key file, you'll get a traceback complaining about it. Probably we want to do what Arch does here: a brlapi group owning that file, with 0640 permissionss.
