Robin et al,
As we know, there is an issue with the Mac installer under Mavericks (OS-X 10.9) – it doesn’t satisfy the newest security settings. I’m not running Mavericks, but have helped a couple people out, and it seems lowering the security setting allows it to work.
But the error message you get is cryptic and just plain wrong, so this is going to be confusing of folks over and over again. There has a beena bit of discussion on the python-mac list, and Ned Deily wrote:

Taking a quick look at the dmg contents, it seems somewhat different
from other bundle-format pkgs I’ve looked at. My guess is that
Installer.app changed for 10.8 and is less tolerant of old packaging
formats. Installer.app certainly still does support older bundle-format
packages (as opposed to the 10.5+ “flat” packages which are capable of
being signed), even in 10.9. The current python.org installers, for
example, are still in the old format. So the wxPython package should be
fixable. If support for installing on OS X 10.4 or earlier is not
needed, the better solution would be to migrate to more recent packaging
tools.

Perhaps we can help do that – what are you using to build the mpkg now?
Also – any interest it doing a wheel build? that is theoretically the way to go in the future – and a allowing people to “pip install wxpython” would be pretty nice.
