| complete | This is the libwacom-standard metapackage. It pulls in all subpackages of libwacom-standard. |
| primary | libwacom is a library to identify graphics tablets and their model-specific features. It provides easy access to information such as "is this a built-in on-screen tablet", "what is the size of this model", etc. The name libwacom is historical - it was originally developed for Wacom devices only but now supports any graphics tablet from any vendor. libwacom does not make a tablet work. libwacom is merely a database with a C library wrapper for information about a tablet. It has no effect on whether that tablet works. libwacom is currently used by GUI toolkits to map built-in tablets to the correct screen and by libinput to determine configuration options such as the left-handed settings. SVG layout files are used to describe tablet visually. |
| dev | This is the developer subpackage of the libwacom-standard port. It may contain headers, pc files, static and PIC libraries and SO links. |
| man | This is the man page subpackage of the libwacom-standard port. |
| tools | This package contains tools based on the wacom library. |
