2.5.1.5 with separate wxGTK

Hi,

I'm trying to get wxPython 2.5.1.5 in Gentoo Linux's portage system
but it won't compile with wxGTK 2.5.1. It looks like it was released
before this wxGTK 2.5.1 release:

Download wxGTK-2.5.1.tar.bz2 (wxWidgets)

Can you tell me how I could check out a version of wxPython from CVS
that would compile against the official release of wxGTK?

You could try using the WX_2_5_1 tag but there's no guarantees that it will work. With the "unstable" releases I prefer to hold back until I am more satisfied with the state of things before making wxPython releases, and that typically means that there are fixes in the wxGTK code that are needed to correct issues. So that is why the wxPython releases usually contain post-release wxWidgets code.

The stable series are usually better, and almost always can be used with the official wxWidgets code.
