Bug description:
I reported this as a question -- but it didn't have space for attachments. I'll try to link the question to this.

I've added the patch from http://www.helsinki.fi/~rantalai/synaptics/ that adds rotation to the synaptic touchpad, so it can be properly oriented relative to an xrandr rotation of the screen -- you can read sideways and use the touchpad without trying to apply a rotation matrix to your fingers.

The change is the addition of 99_axis_patch.diff into debian/patches, adding it to debian/patches/series and updating the changelog.
