Overview
Request 560788 revoked
- Update to version 2.9.82 (3.0.0 beta 2)
* ported to KF5
* This version has a few multi-screen fixes and couple of new device IDs.
It also should no longer crash kded under wayland (however there's no
actual wayland support yet).
There are still two somewhat major issues: hotplug detection is not
supported if libxcb doesn't have xinput support enabled (most likely
affects Debian and Ubuntu), and screen rotation of non-mapped screens is
not handled properly. Barring these, this beta should be stable enough
for use in static setups and should be good enough to package.
- Moved english documentation into the main package

Let's wait until hotplug works then (ideally without xcb-input)...
I'm looking forward to this! However, it doesn't seem to be usable because of https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361743
As the KDE4-based version wouldn't be available after accepting this sr, I'm in favor of waiting until that is fixed.
Ok, I'm fine with waiting.
I don't have a tablet, I just decided to package/submit it because the beta release announcement says that it should be good enough to package.
And the KDE4 version doesn't show up in systemsettings5 of course, can it even be used properly in Plasma5 by "normal" users? I.e. without starting kded4 manually?.
Yes, systemsettings still loads it and can be used fine - as long as the kded module is still enabled by default in the settings IIRC. kded4 is probably started by systemsettings in one way or another.
PS: the reason for this "bug" is this I think: "hotplug detection is not supported if libxcb doesn't have xinput support enabled"
From the build log: -- Could NOT find XCB_XINPUT (missing: XCB_XINPUT_LIBRARY) (found version "") -- Found XCB: /usr/lib64/libxcb.so;/usr/lib64/libxcb-randr.so (found version "1.12") found components: RANDR missing components: XINPUT ... -- Falling back to X11_XINPUT. (Daemon will be unable to monitor hotplugging.)
Yes, with xcb-xinput it works. I added some more info on the report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361743
Can you make a new sr with https://phabricator.kde.org/D9576 applied?
Done, SR#561318
Sorry for the delay... ;-)
