Missing XCB header in Debian Squeeze/Wheezy


The docs talk about a file called input.h that doesn't seem to appear in any of the packages, at least according to:

apt-file search /usr/include/xcb/xinput.h

I need that because I was trying to use the function xcb_input_open_device.

What am I doing wrong?


Solution

  • It seems that XInput Extension is disabled by default because it's not yet stable enough; hence not packaged in Debian.

    In the configure script:

    --enable-xinput         Build XCB XInput Extension (default: "no")
