Well, thats interesting. Did you have dependency issues when you installed this .deb? It would be good if you shared your findings, perhaps directly with Peter Hutterer, he maintains the libevdev code within xorg. Follow the link I posted initially to the freedesktop bug report.
However I don't like much the idea of installing this package: Breaks: xserver-xorg-core (<< 2:1.18.0-1) Replaces: xserver-xorg-core (<< 2:1.18.0-1) Hmmm, no thanks. Did this go smoothly for you?
