[wxPython] WxPython and Python 2.2a0 ...

Unfortunately, the installer detects Python 2.1 and won't install unless
it finds it.

Does it even make sense to try do this:
1. install Python 2.1
2. install WxPython,
3. Copy the WxPython installation from the 2.1 directory to my 2.2a0
directory?

Or, should I just try to recompile it for 2.2a0?

Has anyone tried either of these options?

Thanx,

You might be able to get away with it on Unix, depending on how the dynamic
linking is handled, but not on windows. The wxPython binaries will try to
load python21.dll while the DLL for 2.2 is surely python22.dll. If you have
both on your system then both will be loaded leading to some nice crashes.

Yep.
