Subpackage Descriptions
set This is the libevdev:std metapackage. It pulls in all subpackages of libevdev:std.
primary libevdev is a wrapper library for evdev devices. It moves the common tasks when dealing with evdev devices into a library and provides a library interface to the callers, thus avoiding erroneous ioctls, etc. The eventual goal is that libevdev wraps all ioctls available to evdev devices, thus making direct access unnecessary.
tools This package contains tools based on libevdev.
dev This is the developer subpackage of the libevdev:std port. It may contain headers, pc files, static and PIC libraries and SO links.
man This is the man page subpackage of the libevdev:std port.
Configuration Switches (platform-specific settings discarded)
