patch debian/patches/02-do-not-use-synaptics-for-keyboards.patch -- why not upstreamed?
Hi guys,
while troubleshooting #681796 I had to rebuild older version of synaptics
driver package and I see that there is a patch which had been there for a while
and never adopted upstream... should not it be forwarded upstream?
