[wxPython] WxPython crashed after install

Hi,

trying to install WxPython 2.3.2.1 on a linux (SuSE 7.2).

I'm having gtk+ and glib both 1.2.10. And then installed
wxGTK 2.3.2.1. The demos and samples there looking fine.
Then I installed wxPython (from source as with wxGTK).
In setup.py I just reset BUILD_GLCANVAS to 0, left the
other options 1.
I encountered a lot of warnings but that might be ok,
at least no errors came up (after setting build_glcanvas
to zero)

After this not even the simplest program, i.e. demo.py
does run. Actually the

from wxPython.wx import *

still seems to work, but then a

app = MyApp(0) # Create an instance of the application class
                   # MyApp is derivate of wxApp

fails, the program exits with something similar to
memory access failure
(german language message: Speicherzugriffsfehler)
exit status being 139, no core dump.

I use python 2.2

I have no idea what further to do to fix my problem
and would appreciate any help (hints) really a lot.
I did look thru this mailinglist as well as c.l.py
but could not find anything appropriate.

What is MyApp doing in it's OnInit? Can you tell (by using print
statements) where it is crashing at?
