Description: Emulated Input client library
 libei is a library for Emulated Input, primarily aimed at the Wayland
 stack. It provides three parts:
  - EI (Emulated Input) for the client side (libei)
  - EIS (Emulated Input Server) for the server side (libeis)
  - oeffis for D-Bus communication with the XDG RemoteDesktop portal

Other Info
--------------
This package will be maintained by the Debian X Strike Force team.
Packaging is at
https://salsa.debian.org/xorg-team/lib/libei

This is a new required dependency for Mutter 45. I believe GNOME
Remote Desktop and xdg-desktop-portal-gnome will also be using it soon.

More background can be found at the project's website:

Thanks,
