linux/input.h is shipped with wayland/libinput-openbsd which is not
hooked for now. I see here to points:
- libinput-openbsd is not feature complete that the input works in a
usable way in Wayland. There is still too little experience here.
- sdl2 and gimp are good examples what happen if we hook
wayland/libinput-openbsd. Ports will find linux/input.h and add new
funtions to the port that are not tested.
I would rather activate it right away, but we don't know how the
applications will behave and if wayland/libinput-openbsd is stable so
yet. This is the reason why we want to deactivate it first and then
enable it step by step.
Why do I care? I am then able to hook up KDE Plasma (Which use libinput
only for Wayland. That currently does not work anyway).
Does this answer help? Is that okay for you?
