I tried to install wxPython on my Mandrake 10 system by “rpm -i” the
file wxPythonGtk-py2.3-2.4.2.4-1.i386.rpm
It seems to be working fine but when I entered python shell and type:
import wx
I got total of 8 same warnings:
Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate loadable module in module_path: “libgalaxy.so”
They didn’t show up when importing wx the 2nd time.
Can anyone tell me what’s wrong and how I can fix it ?
BTW, I have been a MS Windows user for years and just switched to
linux 2 weeks ago. I know about some very basic commands of Linux
but am NOT familiar at all with those software installation stuff.
PS: I also downloaded Boa Constructor and it seems to be running
fine under the current installation of wxPython, except that the designer
window is missing. Although I am not that familiar with Boa Constructor,
I believe the designer window is one of the key components.

Sounds like the gtk lib is not able to find the galaxy theme engine for some reason. It might be a problem with your shared library path. Check /etc/ld.so.conf and/or LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the environment. Or maybe you've uninstalled galaxy but your gtk configs are still trying to use it?
You might also want to try the wxPythonGTK2 version and see if it does any better. I just installed the 2.5.2.8 GTK2 version on MDK 10 this morning and it does fine. I don't know about 2.4.2.4 though.
