Description

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.

In the other systems

The newest version among them is 1.11.2, as upstream numbers it.

x11/py-xcffib: update to 1.11.2 (#1371)

Update xcffib from 0.9.0 to 1.11.2 and switch to PEP 517 packaging. The obsolete generated _ffi.py plist entries were removed; the current wheel ships the generated bindings directly. Validation: bmake makesum, patch, build, fake, package, test, check-license, and git diff --check passed. PORTREVISION was removed per version-bump policy. ## Summary by Sourcery Update the xcffib Python port to the current release with modern packaging and streamlined installed-file handling. Enhancements: - Update the xcffib port to version 1.11.2 and modernize it for PEP 517 packaging. - Refresh the port metadata and dependencies for the current xcffib release. Chores: - Remove obsolete plist entries for generated bindings and reset the port revision for the version update. --------- …
