They are NOT in the /usr/lib of the Mac of a colleague here in
Valencia.
Many of these libraries are also in /usr/local/lib/wxPython-
unicode-2.8.9.2/lib on my Mac and that of my colleague
They are NOT needed in order for me to compile GRASS without errors
The ARE needed for me to run the wxPython GUI 3D display and
digitizer. My colleagues also cannot run the wxPython 3d display
and digitizer without these files.
So my questions are:
1. Are these on in your /usr/lib William?
Yes. These are for the system copy of wxPython. Don't delete them.
2. Do I somehow have some legacy files that I'm compiling against
(even if I remove them from /usr/lib) or
Nothing in GRASS should link directly to them on OSX. Only wxpython
modules should link to the wx libraries, vdigit just loads wxpython.
I found that wx nviz and vdigit *did* link the wx libraries - a
reversion in the switch to setup.py that I missed. Fixed now in SVN.
It doesn't hurt to link the wx libraries, but maybe, if there are
multiple copies of wxpython installed (system and /usr/local), the one
that was linked at compile time is different than the one found in
sys.path at run time. This would cause trouble.
GRASS should compile with the one found using the --with-wxwidgets flag.
3. Is my colleague Agustin somehow missing these files that should
have been installed on his Mac?
I need to look at this closer, later, gotta go.
If these are missing in /usr/lib, the only safe way to restore them is
to reinstall the system.
