Linux configure fails on GStreamer

ON Red Hat Linux

Using the new build-wxpython.py --install and it stubs its toe on
GStreamer. GST is installed btw some I'm curious why it doesn't find
it, but never mind I wanted to get the build done.
Tried:
./configure --prefix=$INSTALLDIR --disable-mediactrl --enable-rpath=
$LD_RUN_PATH
in hopes configure would would not demand GStreamer, no joy.
So what I need is a way to tell the auto builder to not use GST.
__ideas__?

You can either change the options passed to configure in the build-wxwidgets.py script (which is called by build-wxpython.py) located in {WXROOT}/build/tools/, or if you run configure manually in the build folder that the build scripts use, then you can pass --no_config to build-wxpython.py to prevent it from trying to run configure again

IIRC there is an additional dependency that GStreamer has that is not reported, but that can cause the configure check to fail. I think it was gconf-devel or something like that.

Thanks Robin,
The build-wxwidgets.py modification technique worked like a champ!
It might be nice to have the master build script pass through config
options somehow.
(I couldn't quite understand which directory to configure manually
to try the --no-config technique.)
