[SOLVED] Bash - synclient command not found

I switched today to Wayland, uninstalled synaptic package and renamed all files in  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/XX-name.conf.bak
Since then whenever I boot into desktop and run terminal, I see there

bash: synclient: command not found

I know, synclient is not installed (no standalone package), it's part of the xf86-input-synaptics package which I uninstalled. Any clue to get rid of that?
Thanks

Re: [SOLVED] Bash - synclient command not found

Remove the synclient command from wherever you put it.  There is no way anyone here could know where that is.  Check your startup files or grep for synclient in your dotfiles and ~/.config/*

Re: [SOLVED] Bash - synclient command not found

You are calling the command from one of your bash initialisation files. If you see it only on login, it is in .bash_profile or .profile. If you see it every time you open a terminal, it's in .bashrc.

Moving to NC...
