So, I have applied both patches, but I had to split things up:

 * From PATCH 2/2, I took the removal of the Python tools, made it
   unconditional, and applied that to master.

 * In next, I cherry-picked the patch from master that unconditionally
   removes Python tools of libinput, then applied the python-libevdev
   patch, then applied a patch that adds the libinput option for Python
   tools.

This way, we have the fix in master (removal of Python tools) and the
new feature in next.

Thanks!
