Related to this code in setup.py:

try:
    from xpybutil.compat import xproto, xinerama, randr
except:
    print('')
    print('xpybutil requires the X Python Binding')
    print('See: http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xcb/xpyb/')
    print('More options: xpyb-ng:', 'https://github.com/dequis/xpyb-ng',
          'and xcffib:', 'https://github.com/tych0/xcffib')
    sys.exit(1)

I'll poke at this to see what dependency needs to be added.

[Comment 3 Devrin Talen 2024-09-13 20:24:29 UTC]

Looks like this failed because I originally didn't include a dependency on dev-python/xcffib, and therefore the tinderbox environment didn't have that installed.

The commit this was run off of is:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/proj/guru.git/commit/?id=d5200d5a9fd54fbbb099da9ecbe7a7497146d0f3

The commit that fixed the missing dependency is:
https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/proj/guru.git/commit/?id=e123e951c0e1712a4191c7ae654d8938bf3fb2c5

Considering this fixed.
