wxPython 2.8.10.1 on Linux: Editra fails at startup with ebmlib ImportError

Dear all,

After having successfully built and installed wxPython 2.8.10.1 on
Ubuntu 9.04 x86_64, I get the following when trying to startup Editra:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Editra", line 79, in <module>
    main()
  File "Editra", line 74, in main
    import Editra
  File "/data1/scratch/jwd/build/wxPython-src-2.8.10.1/wxPython/wx/
tools/Editra/src/Editra.py", line 59, in <module>
    import profiler
  File "/data1/scratch/jwd/build/wxPython-src-2.8.10.1/wxPython/wx/
tools/Editra/src/profiler.py", line 35, in <module>
    import util
  File "/data1/scratch/jwd/build/wxPython-src-2.8.10.1/wxPython/wx/
tools/Editra/src/util.py", line 38, in <module>
    import ebmlib
ImportError: No module named ebmlib

A "find" for "*ebmlib*" through the whole unpacked wxPython source dir
yields nothing. Doing "find -iname "*.py" | xargs grep
FileTypeChecker" through the whole source dir (Editra calls
ebmlib.FileTypeChecker) only yields the following:

./wxPython/build-gtk2.unicode/lib.linux-x86_64-2.6/wx/tools/Editra/src/
util.py: checker = ebmlib.FileTypeChecker()
./wxPython/wx/tools/Editra/src/util.py: checker =
ebmlib.FileTypeChecker()

I think I can safely assume that ebmlib is not included. Is there
something I'm missing?

Thanks for any advice,
Charl Botha

It appears that the wxPython build scripts were not updated to include that (newish) package.

You can get the latest version from editra.org.

I will look at updating the build scripts. (or Robin will there be no more 2.8 releases?)

There may be a 2.8.11 release, but no solid plans yet.
