Description Peter Hutterer 2017-10-09 19:48:43 EDT
Description of problem:
libinput relies on systemd's hwdb to fix the number of touchpads that advertise wrong axis ranges (see upstream 60-evdev.hwdb). With the 7.5 rebase for libinput and the Wayland plans, this becomes more important than before, we should really sync this with upstream.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
systemd-219-42.el7_4.1.x86_64

Expected results:
Installed files: /usr/lib/udev/hwdb.d/60-evdev.hwdb, /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-evdev.rules

When a device with a hwdb match is present, the evdev ranges should be corrected as the hwdb suggests.

Additional info:
62-evdev.hwdb is currently provided by by the hwdata package but Lukáš suggested this be moved into systemd proper.

I'm not sure why the Rebase keyword got added, but I don't consider this a rebase, so I'm removing it.
