thanks for the link I gather that I must use the 64bit version due to the lib's.
It sounds to me like there should already be 32-bit versions of the system libs installed, so you should already be able to build a 32-bit version of Python and any other extension modules that you may be using. Why do I suggest this? Beause from the provided link it sounds like you'll need to ensure that the wxGTK is compiled in 64-bit mode if you are going to use it with the 64-bit version of Python, and I'm not entirely sure how solid that is. (Ask on wx-users or wx-dev to be sure.) On the other hand it should be real simple to build a 32-bit verson of Python (and it can coexist with your SUSE version) and then build wxPython. On the third hand, I bet that somebody on one of the suse lists would be able to point you to some how-to for building python extension modules for 64-bit Python.
