- Update to version 0.99.1:
  * Release candidate for libinput 1.0.
  * No additions to the API, this release only contains a couple of
    bugfixes and general improvements.
  * The most obvious fix is that natural scrolling now also works
    for edge scrolling. The threshold needed to trigger scrolling
    on a touchpad was reduced to 2mm in 0.21 but a bug prevented
    that from activating until 5mm movement was hit. 
  * Touchpad scrolling now uses unaccelerated motion data. This
    provides better behavior for short consecutive scroll motions
    and a better 1:1 mapping between finger and content, especially
    with natural scrolling.
  * The pointer acceleration code has been cleaned up, though the
    focus here was to make it easier to understand for developers.
    The functionality remained largely the same aside from a few
    bugfixes.

Tue Aug  4 16:35:20 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Update to version 0.21.0:
  * A new addition to the API is the configuration option to toggle
    disable-while-typing. It's still enabled by default, but can
    now be disabled for the use-cases where it is problematic
    (games, for example). The API is the usual quartett of
    configuration options:
    - libinput_device_config_dwt_is_available
    - libinput_device_config_dwt_set_enabled
    - libinput_device_config_dwt_get_enabled
    - libinput_device_config_dwt_get_default_enabled
  * The second addition to the API is the ability to get the time
    in microseconds from an event:
    - libinput_event_gesture_get_time_usec
    - libinput_event_keyboard_get_time_usec
    - libinput_event_pointer_get_time_usec
    - libinput_event_touch_get_time_usec
  * libinput switched internally to use µs for all timestamps which
    will help those devices that have a sampling frequency of more
    than 1000Hz.
  * Thumb detection, added for 0.20, has seen fine-tuning to reduce
    the number of misdetection. Likewise, the gesture code has seen
    a bunch of changes to tune the reliability of gesture
    detection, especially on semi-mt touchpads.
  * Scrolling is now more reactive too, with reduced thresholds
    before scrolling kicks in.
  * Merged a bunch of device-specific device handling to
    work around quirks and deficiencies in some touchpad hardware.
- Add
  libinput-touchpad-serial-synaptics-needto-fake-new-touches.patch
  following upstreams advice for kernel 4.1.

Sat Jul 18 08:28:06 UTC 2015 - tittiatcoke@gmail.com

- Update to version 0.20.0:
  * The big new addition in this release is support for touchpad 
    gestures. Two types of gestures are supported: swipe and pinch. 
    Swipe is triggered by a movement of 3+ fingers in the same
    direction, pinch is triggered by two fingers moving towards or 
    away from each other and/or a rotation around a logical center.
    Both gestures, once triggered, can move around the touchpad, 
    making it possible to use them for fine-grained motion. 
  * Edge scrolling is now possible on clickpads too and thus available 
    on all touchpads. Thumb detection was added, it is now possible 
    to rest the thumb on a clickpad while moving a pointer without 
    interference
  * libinput now requires touchpads to have a resolution. If the 
    kernel device does not set it and none of the hwdb rules do either, 
    libinput assigns a default resolution to the device. This may have 
    an effect on your touchpad, please file a bug if you notice 
    anything untoward. On the positive side it removes the magic 
    numbers sprinkled through the code

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu Jul  9 19:22:18 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Update to version 0.19.0:
  * The biggest change in this release is improved pointer
    acceleration code. Previously, slow movements were decelerated.
    For anything resembling normal motion the pointer response is
    effectively 1:1, making the cursor respond nicely to your mouse
    movement.
  * Low-dpi devices had a bug where they would skip pixels for
    small movements. This was caused by the pointer normalization
    to 1000dpi. Devices with a native resolution below 1000dpi now
    have their own acceleration curve, providing much better
    behaviour.
  * The side-effect of this is that we had to drop the pretense of
    normalization to 1000dpi. The documentation has been adjusted.
  * The second side-effect is that the unaccelerated data is now
    closer (or equal) to the device native resolution.
  * The second user-visible change is disabling of tap drag-lock by
    default. A new config API triplett is available to enable it:
    libinput_device_config_tap_set_drag_lock_enabled
    libinput_device_config_tap_get_drag_lock_enabled
    libinput_device_config_tap_get_default_drag_lock_enabled
  * Other fixes include better responsiveness of the touchpad when
    switching from the trackpoint to the touchpad and a smaller
    edge scroll motion threshold. And of course the usual bugfixes.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jun 23 08:12:33 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Update to version 0.18.0:
  * Touchpad handling has improved filters for erroneous small
    movements. Palm detection in the edge scrolling zone has been
    disabled, it previously caused unreliable edge scrolling on
    larger touchpads.
  * Alps touchpads now always provide a config option for middle
    button emulation - these devices don't know whether a middle
    button is available, providing the option (and defaulting to
    emulation on) allows users to have a better out-of-the-box
    experience.
  * Note that license boilerplate code has changed - it now carries
    the MIT license as intended. See the commit log for bc9f16b40e
    for details.
  * No API changes or additions.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jun  6 16:21:16 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Update to version 0.17.0:
  * The timeout for the tap-and-drag has been significantly
    reduced.
  * Really slow mouse movement got swallowed because the
    acceleration calculations timed out and returned an
    acceleration factor of 0.
  * Basic thumb detection was added for clickfinger behaviour, it
    is now possible to execute a single click with a thumb while
    the pointer-moving finger is resting on the touchpad.
- Changes from version 0.16.0:
  * Touchpads with ABS_MT_DISTANCE such as the Chromebook Pixel are
    now supported.
  * The tapping code now allows ending a tap-and-drag with an extra
    tap, i.e. the sequence becomes:
    tap, finger down, move .... move, finger up, tap
  * Also in the touchpad code: disable-while-typing has been added.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May  6 10:24:26 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Update to version 0.15.0:
  * One new API was added: libinput_device_keyboard_has_key() which
    does what it says on the box.
  * A new tool is now available: libinput-debug-events
    This tool allows debugging libinput events directly, it works
    as something like an evtest to libinput. Note that it is very
    much a debugging tool only, do not rely on any specific
    behavior or output format.
  * A new udev property POINTINGSTICK_CONST_ACCEL is now supported
    for pointing sticks. If set for a compatible device, the input
    data is multiplied with a constant factor.
  * We've added support for the LIBINPUT_MODEL_xzy udev tag. This
    enables us to tag specific models or series in udev and apply
    required quirks.
  * A couple of bugfixes, mainly in the touchpad code. The
    doubletap timeout is now longer but multi-tapping is generally
    more responsive now.
  * Clickfinger behavior was fixed to allow left-clicks even when a
    touch isn't present on the device.
  * Button scrolling is enabled by default on some devices now,
    specifically on devices without a scroll wheel but with a
    middle button.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon May  4 20:07:31 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Also set Version to 0.14.1, no need to have a diff there.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr 22 14:37:33 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Update to version 0.14.1:
  * libinput now provides middle button emulation for physical
    buttons and, for some devices, a configuration interface to
    enable said emulation.
  * A new tool "libinput-list-devices" was added. This tool lists
    the locally recognised devices and their respective
    configuration options and configuration defaults. Note that due
    to the design of libinput, this tool can only show the
    _default_ configurations, not the _current_ configuration of
    each device.
  * The pointer acceleration range has been widened to allow for
    greater deceleration and greater acceleration. Since we retain
    the [-1, 1] range, you may see a slight slowdown or speedup. To
    get the previous behaviour, use the value: current setting *
    2.0/3.0.
  * Five (or more) finger tapping is now handled correctly, though
    note we only send events for up to three fingers. libinput now
    supports multi-tap and drag, so e.g. three taps will execute a
    triple-click.
  * Palm detection now avoids accidental tapping, see
    http://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/palm_detection.html
  * And of course the usual bugfixing, including letting libinput
    handle more devices such as keyboards with scroll wheels or
    devices that only consist of a wheel.
- Add tool subpackage.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr  8 19:46:59 UTC 2015 - mpluskal@suse.com

- Update to 0.13.0
  * No API changes were merged in this release, the ABI is 
    compatible with 0.12.0.
  * The tap motion threshold is now a fixed distance on all 
    touchpads (withphysical resolution). This stops the delay in 
    pointer motion seen on some devices. 
  * The edge scrolling motion threshold now accumulates, so even a 
    slow scroll will eventually trigger edge scrolling.
  * The velocity calculation on slow movements was fixed, this 
    should provide a slightly more responsive and accurate 
    touchpad motion, especially on direction changes.
  * To ease development, libinput will now print warnings when a 
    caller does wrong event conversions (e.g. requesting a touch 
    event when the event is a pointer event, etc.).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Mar 14 20:24:07 UTC 2015 - jengelh@inai.de

- Update to new upstream release 0.12.0
* The new features (since 0.11) are device groups and the use of
  udev tagging for device identification. Device groups are a
  labelling system to allow callers to identify which libinput
  devices are part of the same physical device.
* libinput's API and ABI are now stable
* Fixes to correctly handle Protocol A multitouch devices.
* Buttonless touchpads are now supported (e.g. the touch portion of
  the Wacom Intuos tablets), on those touchpads tapping is enabled
  by default.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Feb  9 01:35:57 UTC 2015 - zaitor@opensuse.org

- Update to new upstream release 0.10.0
* A call to libinput_device_config_accel_set_speed() with a value
  of NAn triggered an assert() in libinput.
* Pointer devices with absolute axes (such as the ones used in VMs)
  had an uninitialized pointer acceleration speed, triggering a
  warning in the xorg libinput driver.
- Changes from upstream release 0.9.0
* Support for hovering fingers on touchpads. Some touchpads detect
  fingers before actually touching the surface causing unexpected
  motion events. libinput now handles such touchpads.
* Click methods are now configurable, see below for more details.
* Support for the Lenovo X1 Carbon 3rd was added. Note that this
  requires kernel patches and a udev hwdb addition.
- API additions:
* libinput_device_config_click_get_methods
* libinput_device_config_click_get_method
* libinput_device_config_click_get_default_method
* libinput_device_config_click_set_method

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jan 25 13:33:04 UTC 2015 - jengelh@inai.de

- Update to new upstream release 0.8.0
* Improved touchpad support. For example, it is not necessary
  anymore to lift all fingers when switching from scrolling to
  pointer movement.
* Scroll event types were merged. Previously we supplied horiz/vert
  scrolling as separate event, even in diagnonal scrolling.
  Now each scroll event may contain one or more axes.
* Support for axis sources: a scroll event can be of source finger,
  wheel or continuous. This enables callers to implement kinetic
  ("fling") scrolling.
* Scroll wheel events now return the data in degrees. A matching
  udev hwdb system is in place to adjust this when needed. A
  "discrete" scroll value is available if you are interested in
  the clicks only.
* Left-handed configuration was renamed. For future tablet support,
  the button-based naming was inappropriate. A simple
  search/replace fixes this.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Dec 12 02:00:29 UTC 2014 - jengelh@inai.de

- Update to new upstream release 0.7.0
* Devices can be disabled/enabled at runtime. This includes smart
  disabling of touchpads when a USB mouse is plugged in, and smart
  disabling of the T440 touchpads so that the top buttons still
  work even when the touchpad is disabled.
* Edge scrolling is available on some devices, and the scroll
  method can be switched at runtime
* Trackpoints can scroll by pressing the middle button and moving
  the stick. This button-scrolling method is also available on
  other devices on request.
* Pointer acceleration is becoming device-resolution independent,
  provided your device has a DPI entry in the udev hwdb. This makes
  high-resolution gaming mice behave normally. See this post for
  more details:
  http://who-t.blogspot.com/2014/12/building-a-dpi-database-for-mice.html
* Pointer speed can be changed at runtime.
* Natural scrolling is now available, for touchpads and mice.
* Devices can be switched to left-handed, libinput handles the
  details.
* Devices can be asked to change their assigned logical seat at
  runtime.
* Relative pointer events also provide unaccelerated motion. Note
  that this is _not_ raw data as it comes from the device, it is
  normalized to 1000dpi.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Sep 12 10:54:15 UTC 2014 - jengelh@inai.de

- Update to new upstream release 0.6.0
* This release has some API changes, namely:
  "libinput_device_get_keys" is deprecated.
* Initial device state can now always be assumed to be that no
  keys are pressed. Calibration of touch devices has been changed
  to be using a normalized calibration matrix. While
  libinput_device_calibrate has undergone this change, it has
  also been deprecated and replaced with a configuration API.
* The implicit reading of the udev parameter WL_CALIBRATION has
  been removed in favor for LIBINPUT_CALIBRATION_MATRIX. The
  usage of WL_CALIBRATION was broken because the translation part
  of its matrix was in pixels which is a metric not available in
  libinput. The new calibration matrix avoids this by having the
  translation be normalized to the dimension of the device
  dimensions. See the documentation for details about how to use
  the LIBINPUT_CALIBRATION_MATRIX udev parameter.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Fri Aug 22 21:14:17 UTC 2014 - jengelh@inai.de

- Update to new upstream release 0.5.0
* Device information (name, vendor id, product id) getters
* The beginning of a configuration API. So far tapping on touchpads
  can be enabled or disabled.
* As a side effect, tapping is now disabled by default and needs
  explicit enabling via the new API.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sun Jul 13 11:22:54 UTC 2014 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Update to version 0.4.0:
* The logging system now works per-context instead of per library
  and dropped the userdata argument.
* libinput_destroy() was changed to libinput_unref(), plus you
  now have libinput_ref() too.
* A couple of renames of constants for API consistency.
  Triggered by the logging changes, creation of udev seats is now
  different.
* A couple of bugfixes, mainly in the touchpad code.
  Absolute event coordinates are now provided in mm, not
  device-specific coordinates. This doesn't change anything for
  callers using the respective_get_transformed() function.
* ref/unref() is now available for the libinput context itself.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Thu May  1 21:25:26 UTC 2014 - dimstar@opensuse.org

- Add baselibs.conf: provide libinput0-32bit. Required by
  libclutter-gst-2_0-0-32bit.
