libxcb-python-check-deps.patch

Continuing from bug #472224 and in the same manner as bug #499234...

When building in a ROOT, xcb-proto does not get installed to ROOT because it is only in DEPEND. has_version checks ROOT by default so python_check_deps fails even though DEPEND is satisfied. xcb-proto (and Python) really is a host build dependency so adding --host-root to the has_version call fixes the check and allows libxcb to build, even when cross-compiling. Note that python_check_deps already checks for Python itself in / and not ROOT because it wouldn't make sense to execute the Python located in ROOT. See attached patch.
