## `Missing required python module: xcbgen` with Anaconda

**Workaround:** The workaround that some people use, is to create a full-width fully transparent dummy bar on the same monitor and in the same position (with `override-redirect = false`), so that i3 reserves space for this dummy bar, effectively also reserving space for our actual bar. The real bar may need to have `wm-restack = i3` set for it to not overlap with fullscreen windows. **Note:** This requires that you have a composition manager running because the dummy bar may overlap the real bar.
## KeyError: 'eventstruct'
**Problem:** When building version 3.1.0, during `make` (or `sudo make install`), you may get the following error:
```python
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/tmp/polybar/lib/xpp/generators/cpp_client.py", line 3163, in <module>
from xcbgen.state import Module
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/xcbgen/state.py", line 7, in <module>
from xcbgen import matcher

File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/xcbgen/xtypes.py", line 1239, in EventStruct
out = __main__.output['eventstruct']
KeyError: 'eventstruct'
```
**Fix:** You have to manually update the `xpp` submodule. To do that, go into the `lib/xpp` folder and execute `git checkout master` and `rm include/xpp/proto/*`, the second command deletes the already generated, but faulty, headers. After that you can go back into the `build` folder and run `make` again. **Note:** With this fix, you cannot use the `build.sh` script to build polybar.
## Version Mismatch between `xcb-proto` and `libxcb-randr0-dev` on Ubuntu 17.04
**Problem:** On Ubuntu 17.04 (and possibly others), the `xcb-proto` version does not match the version of the `libxcb-*` packages, especially `libxcb-randr0-dev`. This creates problems with the header files. If you get the following or a similar compiler error, this fix may be for you:
