Fixing Caffine-indicator failing to start on Ubuntu 14.04.3

Caffine-indicator is a good thing — good enough that it makes using Linux noticeably happier.

But after upgrading to Ubuntu 14.04.3 it refuses to start and throws an error.
Someone already filed the bug, and it turned out to be a bug in the python3-xlib package. That bug was fixed in Ubuntu 15.04, but 14.04 doesn’t get the same treatment.
So: grab the package manually and overwrite the old one.

After installing, Caffine-indicator is back.
