I always thought the Phoenix project was just the name given to the python 3 port of wxPython but maybe they are renaming it. I didn't see a package for it in Debain Sid so I wont hold my breath for it to be packaged any time soon. I'm not sure I want to spend the time to see if I can get it to

I wasn't a matter of finding the interpreter. It was a matter of building wxPython with mingw. Once Brian wrote the kicad-winbuilder, there was a way to build python and wxpython with mingw that could be used to build kicad on windows. Up to that point, Linux was the only platform where kicad

is that not what all the mingw stuff in the FindPythonInterp.cmake script was for? or is it different again? On Wed, Jun 8, 2016 at 6:31 AM, Wayne Stambaugh wrote: > wxPython is (was?) the problem child. When the python scripting was > originally written, wxPython wasn't

wxPython is (was?) the problem child. When the python scripting was originally written, wxPython wasn't always provided in a usable form on all platforms (think Windows with native python) so we had to be able to provide a python pcbnew library without wxPython support. Since the advent of the

2016-06-07 Thread Simon Wells
Is there anyone who doesn't use All or None of the python build options? As with how codependent a lot of the code has become it seems pointless still having the 3 build options. Would it not be better to just have one saying -DKICAD_PYTHON or -DKICAD_SCRIPTING? Simon
