+xcffib is intended to be a (mostly) drop-in replacement for xpyb.
+xpyb has an inactive upstream, several memory leaks, is python2
+only and doesn't have pypy support. xcffib is a binding which
+uses cffi, which mitigates some of the issues described above.
+xcffib also builds bindings for 27 of the 29 (xprint and xkb are
+missing) X extensions in 1.10.
