I've never tried a 64-bit build (nor used a 64-bit platform) so I don't know if there are any issues that need resolved or not. The only thing I can say is to try the instructions in the source tarball (in wxPython/docs/BUILD.txt) and see what happens. Another possibility is to find the build script for the SUSE wxPython pacakge and see if they had to do any tweaks.
Where might I find the build script for the SUSE wxPython package? That sounds like the way to go.
SUSE is an RPM-based distro, right? So they should be making the *.src.rpm available. In that you will find the source tarball they built, any patches they needed, and also the RPM .spec file that was used to control the build process.

See I did not realize that is how it's done. I guess I try find the src.rpm. Thanks for the help.
