I prefer this one, as per the policy mentioned above this way at least
people make an active choice to 'mess up' their system as opposed to
packages being installed doing it 'silently'.
That option still kinda sucks. kcm_touchpad would essentially be broken,
until some other package is removed (if I'm understanding this right).
I suppose adding a
Conflicts: xorg-x11-drv-libinput
to kcm-touchpad isn't a viable option either.
On the other hand, if this cannot be toggled at install/runtime somehow, the
original suggestion may be the least bad option.
