+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

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