Well, it doesn't help that we are not aware that that is the reason. The
bts doesn't tell us. All I see is an old bug that doesn't get archived.

There is probably something wrong in the packaging of brltty that causes
4 non-release archs to FTBFS with a recent version. It would help more
if a wishlist bug about that would be opened instead of an unrelated bug
does not get archived.
