just remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf

I think, this is wrong way. For example, I need this alternative configuration file to be able to switch a keyboard layout to the cyrillic (or any local layout).
Another variant - to return the file 50-synaptics.conf to the old place into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/. It's work too for most people.

Re: [SOLVED] Touchpad Synaptics not works after last update of xf86-input

Seems there is an issue with the new default path /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/, as the synaptics conf there is the same as the old one in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ but is not picked up correctly... This is therefore not really [SOLVED], you shouldn't need to duplicate the conf in /etc, the default one should work... Better to inform someone upstream on this, but I am a newbie so I don't know how...

It is the correct way. Except if you're configuring your keyboard in that file, then the correct thing is to remove all other sections from the file and leave just the keyboard config.

Re: [SOLVED] Touchpad Synaptics not works after last update of xf86-input

@Alain2

X reads first configuration in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d then /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d

When you copy 10-evdev.conf file into /etc/X11 you completly override previous system configuration. It's the reason copying synaptics configuration file into /etc/X11 fixes the issue
Defining default system configuration in /etc/X11 with previous xorg was a mistake, now it's fixed.
Wiki should be fixed. It's not a packaging bug, but a configuration bug.

@lordheavy

I agree with you that the new xf86-input-synaptics package is using the right configuration scheme, however it is breaking the functionality on every installed system. It was a packaging bug, which is now fixed, but it has to be handled manually by most users of previous versions. That's why I won't re-open the bug report FS#41589. Instead, I am asking here: shouldn't this change be notified to the users just like it has been done for most breaking changes on archlinux frontpage news?

By the way, thanks for your great work.
