wxPython doesn't quite install

I've just about given up trying to solve this problem
alone. I get wxWidgets and wxPython (both 2.6.3)
installed, but when I try to

import wx

in python it can't find the core module. I'm running
Enterprise Linux 4 (I'm a moron and don't know what
Red Hat version that is) on a 64-bit machine. Python
is 2.4

My install process (most successful of many tries):

in wxWidgets src dir
./configure --with-gtk
make
make install

in wxPython src dir
python setup.py build CORE_ONLY=1
python setup.py install

Thanks.

Is it _core or _core_ that can't be found? (One is a Python module and the other is a binary extension module.)

Double check if the wxPython packages were installed in {prefix}/lib/python2.4/site-packages where {prefix} is the prefix that Python was installed to. (Probably /usr.) It may also have been put into {prefix}/lib64/python2.4/site-packages depending on how that version of distutils has been setup or patched. Then look and see if the _core_.so and other *.so files have been installed in the wx package. Based on what is missing or located in the wrong plce I can give you some suggestions on how to proceed.
