Hi folks,
after downloading wxPython3.0.0 I configured ( options below ), compiled and installed wxWidgets to its default location ( /usr/local/ ).
–enable-unicode
–disable-debug_flag
–enable-shared
–disable-compat28
–disable-ribbon
–disable-mediactrl
–disable-aui
–disable-xrc
–disable-webkit
–disable-webview
–disable-gstreamer8
–disable-joystick
–disable-html
–disable-htmlhelp
–disable-gif
–disable-pcx
–disable-tga
–disable-iff
–disable-pnm
–disable-xpm
–disable-richtext
–without-opengl
–disable-stc
–disable-joystick
–disable-svg
–disable-protocols
–disable-sockets
–without-libtiff
–without-regex
–without-expat
–without-zlib
–without-libjpeg
–disable-sound
I know it is a minimal GUI configuration but it works for me.
Afterwards I tried compiling wxPython ( with already installed wx-config ) in above mentioned source package with command:
python2.7 build-wxpython.py --no_config --no_wxbuild
Compiling fails with messages:

ERROR: failed building wxPython.
Pretty much obvious it must fail since I did not compile wxWidgets with the HTML stuff.
Question is now why wxPython does not use my pre-installed WxWidgets’ setup.h to exclude those parts either like wxWidgets did.
Am I missing something? Any hints are highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Philipp
