Package: xserver-xorg-input-all
Version: 1:7.7+15
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

As of x-x-input-synaptics 1.8.3-2, my touchpad (on an Asus UX303) has become a basic mouse (previously tapping, scrolling etc were working) and I can't revert back as task-desktop depends on x-x-input-all, which depends on x-x-input-synaptics.

This is due to a change in synaptics package to make it be used instead of libinput if both are installed.
The rationnal for that, as explained in the commit, is :
"The synaptics driver is more of a leaf package than libinput (which covers a multitude of device types) and can be removed by default. When specifically installed by the user, the synaptics driver should override the system default."

So IMHO synaptics shouldn't be installed by default.

regards,
Nicolas
