Description-en: X11 Input extension library (development headers)
libXi provides an X Window System client interface to the XINPUT
extension to the X protocol.
.
The Input extension allows setup and configuration of multiple input devices,
and hotplugging of input devices (to be added and removed on the fly).
.
This package contains the development headers for the library found in
libxi6. Non-developers likely have little use for this package.
