wxPython 2.5.2.8 unicode gtk

hi all,
when installing the unicode enabled rpm for Linux on www.wxpython.org for RedHat 9 on a Suse 9.1 system I experienced no problem. But when trying to run a wxpython programm I got the following:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "ooos.py", line 3, in ?
    import wx
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/wx/__init__.py", line 42, in ?
    from wx._core import *
  File "/usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/wx/_core.py", line 4, in ?
    import _core_
ImportError: /usr/lib/python2.3/site-packages/wx/_core_.so: undefined symbol: PyUnicodeUCS2_AsWideChar

thanks for any help

The Python on your machine was built with different options than the one that I built the RPM with, so they are not binary compatible. If you get the src.rpm and rebuild it then you should end up with a set of RPMs that will be compatible with your Python.
