[Bug 2039374] Re: xbrlapi causes long delay in GUI login

[Scoot Lee]

(Sorry for the delay.  Launchpad emails were in my spam)

The directory /var/lib/BrlAPI/ exists, but /var/lib/BrlAPI/0 does not exist.
brltty is not running on my system

strace output is below.  my system has functional IPV4 and IPV6


strace: Process 2184 attached

Title:
  xbrlapi causes long delay in GUI login

Status in brltty package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS 
  xbrlapi 6.4-4ubuntu3

  After logging in to the GUI, there is a delay of over 2 minutes before
  the desktop environment loads (screen will be black with a mouse
  cursor)

  This is caused by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/90xbrlapi

  The script runs xbrlapi, which hangs for 2 minutes or so, presumably
  because it is trying to connect to a BrlAPI server that doesn't exist
  on my machine.

  I guess this packages was installed by orca, because I did not
  directly install it myself and I don't need it.

  Did not happen before 22.04
