Fresh install of wxPython on a Win2K box, running Python 2.2 here. My first
_wxStart(self.OnInit)
File "E:\PYTHON22\Lib\site-packages\wxPython\demo\Main.py", line 724, in
OnInit
return True
NameError: global name 'True' is not defined
This is very weird because True is a builtin name in Python 2.2, although now that I think about it I think that it wasn't added until 2.2.1 or something...

Robin, just curious; I thought you used to develop on Redhat. What made you switch?

I still build the RPMs (for wxPythonGTK not wxPythonGTK2) on a RedHat box (in a VMWare session) but except for a few times here and there when I experimented I have mostly used Mandrake for my main Linux development machines. Since October or so last year it has also been my primary desktop machine and now I run Win2k in a VMWare session. It's hard to explain why other than "gut feel" and that Mandrake just feels like the various components and default configs and the Mandrake tools and etc. are all better integrated giving a smoother user experience.
