brltty 6.5-7ubuntu2 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

brltty (6.5-7ubuntu2) mantic; urgency=medium

  * Merge brltty.udev.rules from brltty-udeb.udev.rules.  This picks up only
    changes to comments, enablement of new device IDs that are from
    manufacturers that work specifically in Braille devices (HumanWare), and
    those changes that restrict existing matches on generic device IDs to
    reduce false-positives matches.  Additional changes should be merged for
    testing at the start of the next release cycle.  Thanks to
    Samuel Thibault for pointing this out (LP 1958224).
