xsct in general requires xvfb to be installed on your host, I don't think it 
works without it.
I am assuming you encountered the issue where it complained about xvfb not 
available.
We tested our distro removing X11 as well (in case of microblaze) and we did 
not encounter this issue but that might be due to the fact that xvfb was 
installed on our host machine.
