building fail 2.9.2.4 on ubuntu 11.04

dataviewctrl is new in 2.9 so I decided to install wxPython 2.9
version.
btw, I got an error during build time.

cd wxPython-src-2.9.2.4/wxPython
python build-wxpython.py --build_dir=../bld

checking for GST... configure: WARNING: GStreamer 0.8/0.10 not
available.
configure: error: GStreamer not available
Error running configure
ERROR: failed building wxWidgets

  File "/home/nprtouch/Downloads/wxPython-src-2.9.2.4/build/tools/
build-wxwidgets.py", line 62, in exitIfError

I am using python 2.7. when I had builded the source file, I got an
error.
do you have any idea what this mean?

wxWidgets (and therefore wxPython) depends on other packages in order to provide some of its functionality. In order to use those other packages at compile time their headers and other development files need to be installed. On Ubuntu those are usually available as separate packages with "-devel" or similar in the package name, so search in the package repository for gstreamer's -devel package and install that. You will also need one for gconf. You should probably pay close attention to that part of the build (wxWidget's configure step) to see if there are others that are missing and install -devel packages for those as well, because configure will just disable functionality for some of packages if they are missing, but wxPython requires them.

You have to install the GStreamer support. see the thread "2.9.2.4 on Ubuntu 10.10 install" for other things I run into when I tried to install.

I am at a point with lots of help from Robin that it now builds but there are still issues that the wxPython demo doesn't run correctly - so maybe you want to wait for 2.9.3 or use 2.8.

I see, I would be better wait for the stable version of wxpython 2.9.

Thank both of you.
