Re: [orca-list] bootstrapping brltty.

Never, ever do in place upgrades of Ubuntu desktop, or any GUI using Linux that's not a rolling release!
The chances of problems are very great, and the time spent fixing things will be much greater than doing a 
fresh install 
for most users most of the time.
It'll work for some,but certainly not on Vinux or any optimised distro at this point.
