libinput (Input device library)

libinput is a library to handle input devices in Wayland compositors
and to provide a generic X.Org input driver.

It provides device detection, device handling, input device event
processing and abstraction so minimize the amount of custom input
code compositors need to provide the common set of functionality
that users expect. Input event processing includes scaling touch
coordinates, generating pointer events from touchpads, pointer
acceleration, etc.

Optional dependency: libwacom
