Package: tslib
Version: 1.0-11
Severity: important

The consensus amongst kernel developers seems to be that touchscreens that
cannot report real pressure values should not use ABS_PRESSURE at all.

Older tslib versions (the input_raw plugin to be exact) used this property
amongst others to determine if the device is a touchscreen at all.

This behaviour was changed in tslib 4 years ago [1].

As this new usage scheme for ABS_PRESSURE is enforced for new touchscreen
drivers, none of the pressureless touchscreens will work with the tslib in
Debian.

Therefore could you either upgrade to a newer tslib version or port the
ABS_PRESSURE fix to the current version?
