Hi,
Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that libinput could not be built reproducibly.
This is due to the LIBINPUT_QUIRKS_SRCDIR config.h variable including
the absolute build path to find the test-time input file.
Patch attached that uses a relative path instead. I'm not sure upstream
will like this patch, it is provided mostly as a demonstration
ofthe problem. However perhaps it could be modified to take an
environment variable instead? I will leave this with you.
