libinput 1.9.4 is now available. This fixes a regression introduced in 1.9.3
where some key events got lost or arrived out-of-order. Two separate sources
for the bugs, one is kernel drivers (and uinput applications) misbehaving in
regards to the evdev protocol and not sending out SYN_REPORT events. The
second source was a ordering issue inside libinput so shift+C arrived as
C+shift instead in some cases. This is fixed by reverting to the previous
event handling approach for key events. If you're on 1.9.3 right now,
updating to 1.9.4 is highly recommended.

Peter Hutterer (5):
      fallback: send key events out immediately upon receiving them
      tools: clarify PermissionError in measure-trackpoint-range
      tools: print out the device used for measuring the trackpoint range
      tools: print the device in all measure tools
      libinput 1.9.4

git tag: 1.9.4
