This is fixed in debian's latest upload.

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

Luke, can the latest version of brltty in Debian be merged for quantal?

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

This bug was fixed in the package brltty - 4.4-4ubuntu1

---------------
brltty (4.4-4ubuntu1) quantal-proposed; urgency=low

  Cherry-pick unreleased changes from Debian brltty git:

  [ Mario Lang ]
  * Cherry-pick r6587 from upstream to fix accents output in screen message
  (Closes: Bug#680648).

  [ Samuel Thibault ]
  * Cherry-pick r6588 from upstream to unfuzzy actually-translated messages
  (Closes: Bug#680638).
  * Cherry-pick r6592 from upstream to fix typing modifiers in X11
  (Closes: Bug#681460)

  [ Luke Yelavich ]
  * Merge from debian unstable. (LP: #1029864) Remaining changes:
    - Add brltty-setup, installed in both the udeb and the normal system.
    - Add initramfs integration to run brltty-setup if necessary before
      usplash starts.
    - Add ubiquity integration to propagate any brltty configuration to the
      target system.
    - Add udev rules and /lib/brltty/brltty.sh to the normal (non-udeb)
      package as well.
    - Enable brltty if /etc/default/brltty has RUN_BRLTTY=yes, which is set
      by the installer if brltty is configured; add a NEWS entry for
      upgraders.
    - Don't install /etc/brltty.conf in the package
    - Install udev rules with the same name (85-brltty.rules) in the udeb as
      in the deb.
    - Remove the dh-lisp build-dependency, remove the cl-brlapi package, and
      adjust the brltty package description accordingly. dh-lisp is not
      in main.
    - Build for all python versions (python 2.6), not just the current
      version.
    - Enable brltty at startup on the target system if the alternate installer
      is used.
    - Create separate rules file for the brltty deb, with the rules now
      pointing to a separate script
    - Add gbp.conf file for git buildpackage
    - Do not build the at-spi driver, the legacy at-spi stack is no longer in
      the archive.
  * Use cython for building python bindings.
  * Fix ubuntu branch in gbp.conf.
  * Fix patches taken from upstream that were not properly applying with quilt
  * Build python bindings for python 3.
  * Adjust the brlapi python example in the brlapi.pyx file to work with python
    3.

[Victor Zhou (victor.zhou)]

I can still find this error when installing the latest build.

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel)]

Setting back to 'Fix Released' as it is fixed in Quantal. Please nominate for Precise and go through the SRU process if you think it's worth fixing there.

[Steve Langasek (vorlon)]

The Precise Pangolin has reached end of life, so this bug will not be fixed for that release
