[ANNOUNCE] libinput 1.28.0

[Peter Hutterer]

libinput 1.28.0 is now available.

The big new feature in this release is three-finger drag for touchpads. When
enabled three fingers down on the touchpad will logically hold the left mouse
button down, any movement of the fingers then moves the pointer for a drag.
For some users this is a more precise and easier-to-trigger interaction than
e.g. tap-and-drag.

On tablets the pressure range is now correctly tracked per tablet. Previously
moving the same physical stylus between two tablets with different pressure ranges
caused the stylus to send incorrect pressure data.

And then we have of course the usual collection of bug fixes and
device-specific quirks.

As usual, the git shortlog is below.
