While building something, I got this:

/usr/include/X11/extensions/XTest.h:32:35: fatal error:
X11/extensions/XInput.h: No such file or directory

This means that libXtst-devel should depend on libXi-devel.

This was not happening because xtst.pc doesn't have a xi Requires. Stefan fixed this in our openSUSE package, but I don't see the patch upstream, so here it is.

Forgot to mention: patch is by Stefan Dirsch

not a bug, afaict. libXtst needs libXi-devel but that's a private dependency, not a public one (i.e. a client doesn't need to link to libXi).

so this needs to be solved in the packaging system.
