Fedora 35 KDE libinput-gestures failed to start as a desktop application.

In a more-or-less fresh install, simply following the instructions will lead to

libinput-gestures failed to start as a desktop application.

It turns out that this is because the packaging python package is not installed.
To solve,

sudo dnf install python3-pip
pip install packaging

and then libinput-gestures-setup start should work correctly

Actually, the 2nd line in the installation section did say you have to install the packaging library.

However, I have realised that I can rework the code to avoid the need that library so I have removed it and released version 2.72.
