If you want to build both drivers into the brltty binary then, when
configuring, specify:

   --with-braille-driver=va,vo

You don't need to build them in, though. The dfault is to build all drivers as
dynamically loadable. Then, just specify the driver you want, via brltty's -b
option, and that driver will be loaded.

Why don't you just install brltty on both computers?

If you really want a statically linked brltty binary, then specify: 

   --enable-standalone-programs
