I cannot make ubuntu 16.06 LTS recognize my new Wacom One device. It is actually recognized from usb.

However in the system settings > hardware > wacom tablet, there is no tablet detected.
I have also tried install xserver-xorg-input-wacom but I have some dependency problems.

I tried to install those dependencies manually but I was not sure if I was doing right due to the warning about the removing of some serious other packages.

So, I am stuck here. Any suggestion?
Update: I have solved detection issue by following this link. I still find it quite hassle. It would be so nice to have a ppa but, well, it works now so here is my steps:
- Downloaded input-wacom-0.45.0.tar.bz2 .
Extracted into a folder and computed:
if test -x ./autogen.sh; then ./autogen.sh; else ./configure; fi && make && sudo make install || echo "Build Failed"
However, still I can't make the system detect the tabled as xinput properly. I don't have pressure sensitivity although my device is in the list of xinputs.
>> xinput list
⎡ Virtual core pointer id=2 [master pointer (3)]
⎜ ↳ Virtual core XTEST pointer id=4 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Melfas LGDisplay Incell Touch id=12 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ DELL0818:00 044E:121F Mouse id=13 [slave pointer (2)]

⎜ ↳ Wacom One by Wacom M Pen stylus id=21 [slave pointer (2)]
⎜ ↳ Wacom One by Wacom M Pen eraser id=22 [slave pointer (2)]
I have computed as it is stated in the link:
sudo sh -c "apt-get update && apt-get install xserver-xorg-input-wacom$(dpkg -S $(which Xorg) | grep -Eo -- "-hwe-[^:]*")"
which gives me xserver-xorg-input-wacom-hwe-16.04 is already the newest version (1:0.34.0-0ubuntu2~16.04.1).
Now I am still stuck in pressure sensitivity.
