To make testing libinput git master easier, I set up a whot/libinput-git Fedora COPR yesterday. This repo gets the push triggers directly from GitLab so it will rebuild with whatever is currently on git master.
To use the COPR, simply run:
sudo dnf copr enable whot/libinput-git sudo dnf upgrade libinputThis will give you the libinput package from git. It'll have a date/time/git sha based NVR, e.g. libinput-1.11.901-201807310551git22faa97.fc28.x86_64. Easy to spot at least.
To revert back to the regular Fedora package run:
sudo dnf copr disable whot/libinput-git sudo dnf distro-sync "libinput-*"
Disclaimer: This is an automated build so not every package is tested. I'm running git master exclusively (from a a ninja install) and I don't push to master unless the test suite succeeds. So the risk for ending up with a broken system is low.
On that note: if you are maintaining a similar repo for other distributions and would like me to add a push trigger in GitLab for automatic rebuilds, let me know.
