I'm having a heck of a time getting the latest version to install

I'll try to give some ROUGH help.

There's also a BUILD_OGL=0 flag, as well as some other flags in setup.py
you'll see if you look through the file.

I'm curious, what UNIX or Linux distro are you using? If you're just
wanting to install the RPMs might work.

The wxWidgets part goes off without a hitch. But when it comes to the
wxPython setup.py script, it's a bear. The compiler tells me about all
these include files that can't be found. ogl.h, basicp.h, constrnt.h,
bmpshape.h, and drawn.h. I configured without --enable-ogl, and ran
setup with BUILD_GLCANVAS=0. What's wrong? Thanks.

I'm using Linux From Scratch. I tried installing the rpm, but that didn't work either. I'll try with the flag you suggest thanks.

Hi Scott,

I'm using Fedora Core 2 with Python 2.3 and wxpython both install using
rpms no problems at all.

It not clear from your e-mail what you are having difficulty with one
problem that I had with linux is that it is pre-install with python 2.2
so you must take special care to invoke python 2.3 instead.

Finally, I always prefer to install rpm from a terminal as root. If you
need help with the commands they are as follows;

su
Password xxxxxx

Rpm -Uvh <filename> "I tend to always use the upgrade option even if
it's a new install"

If the file is executable ".bin" unpack the rpm with the sh command
first

sh <filename>

I hope some of this helped.

Neil.

Thanks. I thnk I finally got it installed properly from source. For some reason, a lot of the files were not being copied into place. I copied them manually, and so far it seems to be working okay.
