Re: Orca error starting orca on "new" fc6 system

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Looks like you have a brltty version mismatch or maybe a stale version 
of brltty is laying around.  Alternatively, it may also be possible that 
your system may not have had the necessary dependencies installed (e.g. 
Pyrex) to build the Python bindings for BrlAPI. 

Do you know which version of BrlTTY you built/installed?  In addition, 
when you run brltty, does it tell you which version of BrlTTY and BrlAPI 
you have?
