Bug#907236: libinput: New upstream version available 1.11.902
Source: libinput
Version: 1.11.2-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
Would you consider packaging libinput 1.11.902?
I believe this is one of the RC releases before 1.12 is released.
Why:
====
On my own system, I didn't want to wait so I followed the instructions here
and built an updated package:
https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/update.en.html#newupstream
This fixes a longstanding regression for bluetooth thinkpad keyboards:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/issues/118
How:
====
I'd like to share one of the changes necessary to build this version (and
presumably 1.12 when it's released).
Initially I copied the debian directory from 1.11.2-1, but when running
debuild, lintian complained:

dh_missing: missing files, aborting
I tracked these files down to this commit:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libinput/libinput/commit/5792af9a5f4ae0bc11cd6d070ed643896c157f19
So my suggested change is:
diff --git a/debian/libinput-bin.install b/debian/libinput-bin.install
index b1390933..ba17202a 100644
--- a/debian/libinput-bin.install
+++ b/debian/libinput-bin.install
@@ -1 +1,2 @@
lib/udev
+usr/share/libinput
Since libinput-bin "includes the udev quirks database and helpers."
With this change, the package builds, installs, and runs perfectly!
Thanks,
Hashem
