Unless I misread the code it just wants to ensure that at least version 2.8 is used, this could be done using any of the above variables. Only things wxversion is doing in addition is to propose to download and for a developer if he is having a default of < 2.8 it will load 2.8 or higher if available. > > Instead, it looks to me like the best solution is the one you provided > at the very bottom of http://www.py2exe.org/index.cgi/MatPlotLib. I am happy with what ever change is done as long as it also works for py2exe'd application.
