Ok, that is good to know. I will probably do a system upgrade soon (for
other reasons), so I will see if the xephyr will behave nicely at that
point. With a pyton3 install, my Qtile is running again, but the xephyr
script still doesn't work, which makes experimenting with the config quite
cumbersome.
If I get xephyr to run decently again, I will try the xcffib patch and see
if the problem with shutting down xephyr is resolved by said patch.
Thank you
