I just built the latest on my Linux box, and noticed that it didn't find
the wxPython headers. I figured out what to do but I have the
following suggestions:
1) at the very least, make the message more useful. I've enclosed a diff
to setupext.py that adds some more text.
2) It wouldn't be too hard to make it a bit smarter about finding the
right wx-config. wxPython does not install it to a dir on the PATH by
default. In my case, I have it there from other wx development installs.
The right wx-config, on my machine, is in:
/usr/lib/wxPython-2.6.1.0-gtk2-unicode/bin/wx-config
by checking the wxPython version installed, you should be able to find
it. Or you could use "locate", which is how I found it. I don't know how
ubiquitous locate is on *nix systems, however.
locate "*wxPython-2.6.3.0*wx-config"
3) Re-do the wxAgg back-end to not need any compiled code! -- one of
these days....
