libinput 1.1 is now available. 

This is a relatively small update, most of the bugfixes have found their way
into the libinput 1.0.x releases.

The big addition here is the introduction of pointer acceleration profiles,
or, more specifically, the "flat" profile. By default, libinput provides
some (device-specific) pointer acceleration as outlined in
http://wayland.freedesktop.org/libinput/doc/latest/pointer-acceleration.html

There is significant demand for the device to move unaccelerated, i.e. the
device's virtual movements to move 1:1 to the physical movements. Changing
the device's acceleration profile to the "flat" profile achieves exactly
that. For a device in the flat profile, the speed setting range merely
multiples the deltas with a constant value (for a speed of 0, the default,
the value is 1).

As usual, the git shortlog is below

Andreas Pokorny (2):
      libinput: litest shall only emit auto assign events when replaced
      fix gcc warning on unused return value

Peter Hutterer (10):
      filter: fix constant acceleration for the X230
      evdev: ignore accelerometer devices
      Note that libinput_unref() really destroys everything
      touchpad: don't tap for 2fg down, followed by a single finger up
      test: re-enable the abort-on-bug log handler
      Fix leaking device groups
      Add an API to change pointer acceleration profiles
      configure.ac: bump to 1.0.901
      touchpad: fix the number of button clicks in multitap
      configure.ac: libinput 1.1.0

git tag: 1.1.0
