Most people only needed it for TrackPoint scrolling. Those who have had
gpds installed over several versions of Ubuntu for only this purpose
should try uninstalling it, and enjoy their working mouse2+down
scrolling by default. I assume this is set by
/usr/share/X11/xorg/conf.d/11-evdev-trackpoint.conf , assumed it could
have been a udev rule.

Hiroyuki Ikezoe is probably busy, if you're this impassioned you should
go upstream to gnome git. This isn't a binary module, fix it yourself,
pay someone or politely ask a capable person to help. Don't whine in an
echo chamber.
