Package: brltty
Version: 6.7-3.1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

This messages is repeated every second:

2025-08-29_09:04:24.53478 daemon.err: Aug 29 10:04:24 brltty[4856]: file 
system mount error: usbfs[brltty-usbfs] -> /run/brltty/usbfs: No such device

and this every five:

2025-08-29_09:11:34.53575 daemon.warn: Aug 29 10:11:34 brltty[4856]: 
unsupported generic resource identifier: bluetooth:

This is on a fresh test installation of excalibur after running:

  tasksel install console-productivity

I am aware that the spamming is a matter for the Debian package but I am
raising here first in case it also points to a more general issue in new
Excalibur installations that is worth reviewing before release!

This is a QEMU VM running on Windows.

Thanks,

Andrew
