Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xinput

"Right-click" with stylus does not work in feisty but used to in Edgy.
This is about a tablet [PC].

I used 'xinput set-button-map 1 3 2' to be able to right-click tappng the 
stylus while holding down the button on the stylus. It did work in edgy.
I just updated to feisty. I think it worked actually, in the beginning. Sorry I 
can't tell exactly. The first thing I installed was xinput (had my self-written 
howto from edgy). But then (update?) suddenly it didn't anymore.

My guess is something bad happened with xinput/wacom cooperation. No
matter what order the numbers after 'xinput set-button-map' has, "right-
clicking" with the pen always "middle-clicks" (paste the selected text,
ususally).

The exit value of xinput is 0 (ok) in all possible combinations of the
three values. But the behaviour of the stylus remains the same. Middle-
click when holding down the little button, left-click when not.

I would call this a bug. But I don't know in what package, or what to
test next. Logs doesn't tell me much.
