rpm: fix source0

merge master, fix Makefile conflict

Release v0.7.5

make: move icon/desktop installation into scripts/Makefile.am (suggested by Paul Wise)

manpage: use dist_man_MANS instead of man_MANS and EXTRA_DIST (suggested by Paul Wise)

icon: update mentioned license of the hand from human-icon-theme

for the upstream commit:
'Update COPYING to CC-BY-SA 3.0, as declared and intended in
debian/copyright.'

manpage: switch troubleshooting and examples order

manpage: remove mention of pointercal script, xorg.conf.d etc are now preferred

manpage: simplify 'usage' section: do not list the different configs (would be too many options) + minor changes to troubleshoot section

manpage: remove mentions of udev configuration

manpage: add --output-type option

manpage: description cleanups

add hal output for evdev (not used by auto, not recommended)

only use on old systems lacking xorg.conf.d support but with a
recent evdev

add --output-type option to select output type (default: auto, automatically selects best option)

put output of xorg.conf.d/hal/xinput in separate functions

lang: 'change to' instead of 'change by'

dynamically detect xorg.conf.d support

use detected sysfs name in output when possible

sysfs name detection, checks whether device name is sysfs name

clean up explanation of making calibration permanent for evdev

No hal policy file because older evdevs can not be set using a config, and newer ones will be bundled with xorg.conf.d support

clean up explanation of making calibration permanent for standard xorg drivers

remove xorg.conf mention (superseded by xorg.conf.d snippet, or HAL on
older systems)

The xorg.conf option is not as straightforward as I thought:
Since hotplugging with HAL, the Input Sections of xorg.conf are
automatically ignored. When adding an input section, one would have to
disable hotplugging with Option "AutoAddDevices" "false".
But it is a lot simpler to just write a HAL policy file in that case.

swap_xy, better document the difference between detecting the need to swap it, and the new swap_xy value

replace udev rule by xorg.conf.d snippet for standard xorg drivers too

xorg.conf.d snippet for standard xorg drivers too

add swapaxes option to evdev conf snippet, fix some styling

Print out an xorg.conf.d snippet for the configuration.

Don't claim we support udev configuration.

Configuration of input devices through udev is a big no-no, it exposes us to
the same problems we had with HAL configuration (namely the
configuration-backend specific syntax instead of an X.Org-specific syntax).

Remove the printf statemnents for udev configuration. Server 1.8 that
introduced udev also introduced xorg.conf.d snippets so we can just use the
latter.
