This is frustrating. I can't run the demos because they all require one or more modules that I don't have. For example:
% python demos/demo/ListCtrl.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "demos/demo/ListCtrl.py", line 17, in <module>
import images
File "/home/daniel/Projects/Wordlibro/Python/demos/demo/images.py", line 4, in <module>
from wx.lib.embeddedimage import PyEmbeddedImage
ImportError: No module named embeddedimage
% python demos/demo/ListCtrl_edit.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "demos/demo/ListCtrl_edit.py", line 150, in <module>
import run
File "/home/daniel/Projects/Wordlibro/Python/demos/demo/run.py", line 21, in <module>
import wx.lib.inspection
ImportError: No module named inspection
I actually had a similar problem with wxGrid. At least in that case I was able to edit the file to remove all the extraneous module, but this is not easy to do. The demos are not going to be very useful if I have to be constantly editing them to remove modules I don't understand just so I can run them and figure out what they do. It is difficult to fix code that you can't understand.
I’m not sure what you’re doing, but I install the demos and they “just work” since they’re self-contained. I’ve gotten them to work repeatedly on Windows and Ubuntu with no issues (except for the ones that require cairo, which I don’t have installed). On Windows, you just double-click a link that’s installed. On Ubuntu, you run “demo.py” from the “wxPython2.8 Docs and Demos\demo” folder.

I could be wrong, but I don’t think the demos are intended to be run this way. Try running the file “demo.py” or “demo.pyw” (I’ve seen both versions) in the top-level demo directory; it will open a GUI that lists and runs all of the different control demos. This is what I always do, and I’ve never seen these errors - and I definitely don’t have wx.lib.inspection installed either.

No luck.

The demos can be run both from the main demo.py and standalone. I know
next to nothing about Linux, but I suspect your machine is picking up
the wrong wxPython version.
Try this:
import wx
print wx.VERSION_STRING
And let us know shich wxPython version is picked up. If it is >= 2.8,
your wx installation is messed up.

You must still be running with wxPython 2.6. These other the errors for missing modules your seeing are all for things added in 2.8.
You're probably using an older version of wxPython[1]. If you're on debian or ubuntu then install python-wxgtk2.8 and either remove python-wxgtk2.6 or see the recent thread here about how to set the default verison.
[1] You can easily find out what version you have by running
python -c 'import wx; print wx.version'

WHOO HOO!!! THANKS!
And you also saved me from installing wxPython from source and ending up with two copies of wxPython 2.8 on my system.
And btw, yes, the ListCtrl widget looks precisely correct. So this is definitely the widget I'm looking for.
