Daniel,
While working on a new wxpython300-py package to support the
newest release of relax 3.3.5 (which considers wxwidgets prior to 3.0
to be too buggy), I discovered that two major problems. The cocoa
variant of wxpython300-py was easy to build against
wxwidgets300-osxcocoa, however when a relax-3.3.5 was built against it
and run with 'relax --gui', the wxpython300-py code produces a fatal
error saying that the cocoa support requires a framework build of
python to run. The gtk2 variant of wxpython300-py is even more
problematic as upstream no longer supports OS X/gtk2. After hacking
the configure to retrieve that build option, it became apparent that
the OS X/gtk2 code base has bit-rotted and will require a major effort
to restore it.
Thus if we want to have a functional wxpython300-py which is
supported upstream, we will have to transition the python packages to
a framework build. Hopefully we could implement some carefully placed
symlinks to ease the transition.
