qtile: Keybindings in images script failing.

The issue:

http://docs.qtile.org/en/latest/manual/commands/keybindings.html

I wanted to use gen-keybinding-img from https://github.com/qtile/qtile/tree/master/scripts Script is started without arguments: python gen-keybinding-img

But it fails with this traceback:

Traceback (most recent call last):

It might be easier if we add this to the qtile ... commands. That way it gets packaged correctly and we don’t need to do any of that complicated steps (we should package the logo correctly too).

Yes this is the output:

❯ ./ffibuild 
Building Pango interface
    Failed!
    This component is required.
Building xcursors
    Failed!
    This is optional and is needed for: X11 backend
Building PulseAudio interface

    This is optional and is needed for: PulseVolume widget

    This is optional and is needed for: Wayland backend input configurability

Failures for optional components can be ignored.
Pass -v to print full stack traces.

./scripts/gen-keybinding-img still provides the same error message after.
