Latest TW update 20180626 breaks libinput-gestures

As mentioned in title, latest update breaks libinput-gestures. There was an update of libinput-tools package which is required for gestures. I assume that this breaks it.
Edit:
After digging in debug mode this was shown:

And a lot of these in journal:

I’m not familiar with libinput-gestures, but noticed the following from your opening post

Can not see any devices, did you add yourself to the input group and log out/in?
Could not determine touchpad device.

Is the user a member of the input group ?

It’s never been a requirement for libinput historically, but perhaps gestures works differently? I’ve read some reports (different distros) describing similar eg

#7

Yes, the user is a member of input group. I’ve add myself during initial setup of libinput-gestures. It was working before last update. I’ll try to submit a bug today.
