Package: xserver-xorg
Version: 1:7.0.18
Followup-For: Bug #363248
I was encountering this same problem, so I dug into /usr/bin/dexconf a
bit. I found this really strange section (starting from line 271):
### MOUSE / INPUTDEVICE
DO_EMULATE3BUTTONS=
fetch xserver-$SERVER/config/inputdevice/mouse/port
MOUSE_PORT="$RET"
fetch xserver-$SERVER/config/inputdevice/mouse/protocol
MOUSE_PROTOCOL="$RET"
fetch xserver-$SERVER/config/inputdevice/mouse/emulate3buttons
if [ "$RET" = "true" ]; then
DO_EMULATE3BUTTONS=true
fi
exec 4>"$DEXCONFTMPDIR/InputDeviceMouse"
cat >&4 <<SECTION
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
Option "CorePointer"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
Option "Protocol" "ExplorerPS/2"
SECTION
if [ -n "$DO_EMULATE3BUTTONS" ]; then
printf "\tOption\t\t\"Emulate3Buttons\"\t\"true\"\n" >&4
fi
printf "EndSection\n" >&4
It seems as if dexconf is simply ignoring the values for Option "Device"
and Option "Protocol" that it's pulling from debconf. Is this actually
an intentional behavior?
