Package: xserver-xorg-input-wacom
Version: 0.26.0+20140918-1
Severity: normal

After prolonged use of X, I found myself getting a "Maximum number of clients
reached" error.  It appears that the underlying error is a collection of
leaks triggered in the VT switching code.

I'm using a Wacom Bamboo USB tablet, USB ID 056a:0065, and currently
booted with init=/lib/sysvinit/init (as it looked like systemd might have been
causing X to leak open fds pointing at /dev/dri/card0 - I still haven't
narrowed down the exact cause/fix for that one)

To replicate:
Start Xorg; control-alt-Fx between X and another VT several times; as root,
run 'lsof -n|grep Xorg'.  You should see that one of your /dev/input/eventX
devices is now open multiple times.

This leak goes away if I install xserver-xorg-video-wacom 0.30.0-1 (either
by building from the source package and installing it while keeping the rest
of my xorg packages the ones from jessie, or by letting apt install 0.30.0-1
and pull in all its dependencies.

(The xserver-xorg-core 1.16.4-1.1 package is the stock Debian 1.16.4-1 with
a test fix for yet another leak.)
