While trying to learn how to use EVDI I discovered that evdi_get_event_ready is mentioned in the Quick Start, but not the detailed documentation. As I understand it, the detailed documentation is supposed to document all of libevdi.

Can you use Copr for rebuilds? It supports at least Fedora and CentOS (EPEL) as well as Mageia.
