xsetwacom on elementary OS Hera?

elementary OS Asked by Peter Uithoven on December 4, 2021

I’d love to use xsetwacom to look into some wacom issues & features. For example improving the usability with multiple monitors. But I can’t find or install it.

Following:
https://medium.com/@microaeris/setting-up-wacom-tablets-with-ubuntu-16-04-d7277e4a595d
I have libwacom2 and libwacom-common already installed, but I can’t install xserver-xorg-input-wacom:

sudo apt install xserver-xorg-input-wacom
