Attempts to install wxPython 4.1.1 inside a active Python 3.9.9 virtual environment on MacOS 12.0.1 Monterey is failing with the error:
ERROR: Failed building wheel for wxPython
The following pip modules are installed:
- pip 21.3.1
- setuptools 59.0.1
- wheel 0.37.0
Are there any minimal compiler requirements needed for MacOS when installing wxPython?
The full error trace is here:
