trouble building on Sparc Solaris 8

wxPython Users
1

Hi,

I'm trying to build wxPython 2.5.2.8 on Solaris 8...not sure what is going
on here...
I'm using:
glib-1.2.9 and
gtk+-1.2.9

Here is the output:

# python2.4 setup.py build_ext --inplace --debug

Try add WXPORT=gtk like this:
# python2.4 setup.py build_ext --inplace --debug WXPORT=gtk

by default the gtk2 is used to build wxPython

Ricardo,

I had already set WXPORT=gtk as an environment variable.
I also tried it on the command line as you suggested, but with the same
results.

Still stuck...

Hi,

After several days (!) I still have not been able to get wxPython to build
on a Sparc Solaris machine. Has anyone been able to do so? Is anyone using
wxPython on Sparc Solaris?

Thanks,
Mike

I've been using wxPython on Solaris 8 and 9 (sparc) for over a year now. I
did have trouble with several of the 2.5.x versions, but 2.6.0+ has worked
perfectly.

However, I have not tried to get wxPython working with the gtk1.x version
that comes with Solaris. I custom compiled gtk+ 2.8 (and it's
dependencies). It wasn't hard to get compiled (only one source patch to
cairo needed to compile everything) and I get the benefit of using gtk2
and the cairo back-end.

Since I can't offer any help on compiling with gtk1, can I offer you my
makefile for compiling gtk2?

Thanks,

James,

That would be great...I was trying to get 2.5.2.8 working, but 2.6 would be
ok. Also, what compiler etc. are you using?

Thanks,
Mike
