Bug#822618: mate-settings-daemon: touchpad settings tab missing, after upgrade of xserver-xorg-input-all

[dimitris]

Package: mate-settings-daemon
Version: 1.12.1-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,


recent upgrade of xserver-xorg-input-all pulled in package xserver-xorg-input-
libinput.
After that, (MATE DE) touchpad settings tab was missing from MATE control
center -> Mouse.
Along with Touchpad tab missing, touchpad settings were also lost. tap + double
tap no longer worked and neither did edge scrolling.
Removing those 2 packages (xserver-xorg-input-all & xserver-xorg-input-
libinput) , fully restored previous functionality (with only xserver-xorg-
input-synaptics installed)

maybe this is a bug for xserver-xorg-input-all (? - not really sure), and maybe
#822488 is also related.

thanks in advance,
d.
