Hello,

I have download this file:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/driver/xf86-input-synaptics/snapshot/xf86-input-synaptics-1.7.99.1.tar.gz

under the impression it is the packaged code I need to compile the
latest updates to the xserver-xorg-input-synaptics package for ubuntu 14.04.

I have managed to run:
./configure
./make
./make install

all successfully, but with the results from these commands, I don't see
a compiled driver anywhere that I can inject into my own system.

I have been a software developer for about 7 years now, but mostly in
web application. I am starting to learn about linux development, but am
having trouble finding the material I need to package this in a
meaningful way for me.

Is there something obvious I am missing or some resource I can be
pointed towards? I really want to be able to wrap my head around this so
that hopefully one day I can contribute more to the linux codebase.

Thanks,

--
