Description Jonas Stein gentoo-dev

from https://bugs.gentoo.org/703800#c0
==================
Please add dev-python/libevdev to the gentoo repo.

libinput comes with various tools. Among them is one which can be called via "libinput measure fuzz". This tool requires Petter Hutterer's libevdev python bindings to work.

Note that I am *not* referring to dev-libs/libevdev nor dev-python/python-evdev, which are different packages.

I've added a trivial ebuild to my "haarp" overlay. But seeing as this is a missing dependency of an existiing package existing in the gentoo repo, I figure it's more sensible to have python-libevdev exist in the gentoo repo.
==================



Reproducible: Always
