It seems that there is an inconsistency between #defines:

n XThe part in gdkwindow-x11.c which uses XIEvent and friends is "protected"
by HAVE_XGENERICEVENTS, i.e., XGetEventData() has been found. (Xlib.h)

XIEvent and friends are defined in <X11/extension/XInput2.h> which is
included by gdkdisplay-x11.h if XINPUT_2 is defined.


Can you look in your config.h file, and confirm that
HAVE_XGENERICEVENTS is defined but XINPUT_2 is not?

Does XInput2.h exist on your system?

Other developers: attached patch against head rather than 3.2.3
looks about right...


Cheers,

Patrick
