--- Comment #2 from Nate Graham <pointedstick at zoho.com> ---
FWIW I'm using X, not Wayland.

You are correct, the /usr/lib64/libinput.so symlink is provided by the
libinput-devel package, which explains why I didn't see it before; I didn't
have the libinput-devel package installed.

When I install libinput-devel, the problem happens again, because now there's a
/usr/lib64/libinput.so symlink. When I remove the symlink or the libinput-devel
package, the problem disappears.


Looking at my source checkout (just git master) after running `make`, I can
clearly see that it's created the symlink:


$ cd FreeDesktop/libinput/

$ find . | grep -i "\.so"
./src/.libs/libinput.so.10
./src/.libs/libinput.so
./src/.libs/libinput.so.10.12.2

$ ls -la ./src/.libs/libinput.so
lrwxrwxrwx 1 nate users 19 Apr 23 16:57 ./src/.libs/libinput.so ->
libinput.so.10.12.2


`make install` puts that at /usr/lib64, alongside
/usr/lib64/libinput.so.10.12.2 and /usr/lib64/libinput.so.10 (a symlink to the
first).

Which is the problem?
1. `make` makes that symlink
2. `make install` installs it
3. Having it installed breaks shutdown/reboot operations

...Or all three?
