Hi there,
I face error at the end of the “.whl” generation file with both wxpython 4.2.2 and 4.2.4.
I use Fedora 43 / python 3.14.
I launch the command :
pip wheel -v wxPython-4.2.2.tar.gz 2>&1 | tee build.log
And it fails with this message :
TypeError: copy_file() takes from 2 to 7 positional arguments but 8 were given
------------ BUILD FINISHED ------------
To use wxPython from the build folder (without installing):
- Set your PYTHONPATH variable to /tmp/pip-req-build-nzpvslec.
- You may also need to set your (DY)LD_LIBRARY_PATH to /tmp/pip-req-build-nzpvslec/build/wxbld/gtk3/lib,
or wherever the wxWidgets libs have been installed.
Finished command: build_py (17m33.230s)
Finished command: build (25m34.929s)
Done!
WARNING: Building this way assumes that all generated files have been
generated already. If that is not the case then use build.py directly
to generate the source and perform the build stage. You can use
--skip-build with the bdist_* or install commands to avoid this
message and the wxWidgets and Phoenix build steps in the future.

Any idea to this issue ?
Thanks a lot.
