wx.html2 on Linux x64

wxPython Users

Hello,

on OS X and Windows everything runs just fine, but when I compiled wxpython 2.9.4 on Linux and then tried to run with it my program, it returned such exception:

File “/home/solusipse/wxPython-src-2.9.4.0/wxPython/wx/html2.py”, line 125, in New

val = _html2.WebView_New(*args, **kwargs)

NotImplementedError: wx.html2 is not available on this platform.

I just wanted to ask if I should get such error or maybe I did something wrong. I used Arch Linux 64 bit. wxPython compiled without errors - I used that command:

python2.6 build-wxpython.py --build_dir=…/bld

and then exported LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PYTONPATH.

Greetings,

solusipse

If the packages that the wxWebView classes depend upon are not installed then wxWidget's configure script will automatically disable building those classes. You'll need at least the -dev packages for libwebkitgtk, or whatever it may be called on Arch Linux. Watch the output of the configure command for more clues.

Thanks a lot! This is the package I needed:

https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/webkitgtk2

Now everything works fine.
