libinput in a docker container

[dklem]

Question related to my previous post : seems that there is a problem with libinput in a docker container (Ubuntu 16.04) running on Raspberry Pi 3 (Ubuntu Mate): libinput-list-devices returns nothing when I run it in a container while it returns correct devices when I run on RP3 itself. I am pretty new to UI on Linux, so may be missing some simple things – any help is appreciated.

@dklem with due respect, should this question be raised on Docker or Ubuntu forums instead? I mean you've already discovered the issue isn't related to Qt at all. And I expect you may have more people knowledgeable of the possible solution there rather than here.

Yes, Pablo, you are right. I will be more careful next time.

@dklem I was not trying to nagging you, just making you aware of more chances to get answers for your issue in some other place

I didn't take it that way. I honestly agree with you, just wasn't thinking a lot about this since was very focused on finding solution :)
