linuxconsoletools has a bunch of useful utilities, that cover force feedback,
joysticks, and the inputattach utility.

As a consequence, there are soem requirements that make installing a small
system harder. 
It would be good if we could at least split linuxconsole in a way that e.g.
inputattach is in a separate package, as xf86-input-wacom requires it. And
therefore, if you install xf86-input-wacom, you have ot install libSDL, too.
Ther emay be more logical options to split the package, depending on the
requirements he various tools have, but at least a split off of this utility
would be appreciated.
