I now keep getting an error error: ‘struct input_event’ has no member named ‘input_event_usec’ when building on raspbian jessie.

here is the full output:

The build was working about 4 days ago. What happened? What is a workaround to this?

I'm using a version 1.21 zip for now, as it compiles without error.

[merge]

should be fixed in the master branch now
