I have wxPython 3.0.2.0 built with –enable-graphics_ctx.

The build log shows that it will be compiled, but still I get the errors running DisplayCAL that GraphicContext and wxGCDC are not available on this platform.

This is on Slackware 14.2. Any ideas?

Yes, wxPython probably isn't tested well with wxX11 so you'll probably want GTK.

From your log, it sure looks like you compiled wxWidgets 2.8:
"It was created by wxWidgets configure 2.8.12, which was"

Can you provide the console output of what you're doing?
