In my case, I've had xserver-xorg-input-synaptics removed, because it was messing something in Gnome, like touchpad settings not showing up in system settings. While you could/should report bug about some package, you can also try uninstalling it too, perhaps it will solve your problem. If not, you can reinstall it. As for questions 1 and 2, it is logical course of actions and you did not provide much things to start with, but I do apologise if it sounded condescending to you, or something like that.
