"gi" module is provided by

  $ pkg which -qo /usr/local/lib/python*/site-packages/gi/*init*
  devel/py-gobject3

which is pulled by

  $ pkg query -g %rn py\?\?-gobject3 | xargs pkg query %o
  graphics/graphene

Before trying to build current version (4.8.0) make sure you can build
previous version (4.6.3). Try bisecting by creating a clean build
environment in a jail then slowly replicating until the build fails.
